Book Synopsis The Pit: Photographic Portrait of the Chicago Trading Floor by : Jonathan Hoenig
Book excerpt: Inspired by the 1903 book by Frank Norris, THE PIT is the story of a successful businessman who casually begins trading, only to be swept in and ultimately ruined by the Chicago futures markets, a fascination "worse than liquor, worse than morphine." Created by former floor trader Jonathan Hoenig, THE PIT features lush, color and B&W photos of the trading floor's most thrilling era along with an epilogue documenting its final years.
