Thriller / Suspense / Mystery of sorts..... The story is told through the eyes of AllanMontague -- a successful lawyer living in New York.Through the course ofthe story he becomes introduced to several power players -- many of whomhave millions riding in the stock market.These big players, also usefronts and shill companies whose only purpose is to sell things -- they donot make anything.This gets the public and the government to invest intheir companies which ultimately go bankrupt. The players in the storyaren't too terribly interested in money.They use it as points and live toout maneuver the other.Sinclair reveals the back room shanagans of thestock market and the manipulations they pulled on the market.In addition,he points out the press was unable to print the "truth" onaccount that many of the corporations owned the newspapers. The book wasa little hard to follow despite Sinclair's lucid writing style.There weremany players in the story, many making brief and periodic appearances. Also, the economic theory behind the maneuverings could leave a reader alittle bewildered if they aren't up on the subject of trusts, stocks, highfinance and corporations.Although, I suspect that many of themanipulations the capitalists did have been corrected thanks to modernchecks and safeguards, the book does reveal the vast amount of corruptionon all levels of the American system:the government, banks, and otherbusinesses manipulating other businesses.This book was almost a thriller/ mystery and was entertaining and informative throughout. ...

Another Sinclair classic Samuel's adventures mirror those of an Alger book.He finds employment by saving the life of a rich person.He is happy working there until he realizes the debauchery his employer practices.This goes against Samuel's Christian upbringing and again he hits the street in search of work.Ultimately, Samuel learns that the world isn't a friendly place.The church only offers minimal succor and fails to punish and correct the wealthy members who cause the poor misery. While the events were a bit hokey like that of a rags to riches Alger story, Sinclair's identifying of many social ills are crystal clear.Fans of Sinclair will enjoy this book as well as those who are interested in social injustices and socialism. ...
