To Make a Killing Arthur Cutten, the Man Who Ruled the Markets

"While the history of the financial markets of the early twentieth century has been well documented, To Make a Killing approaches the topic from a new angle, bringing the relatively unknown story of Arthur Cutten to life. Extensively researched, this is an interesting book that deserves to be read." - Angela Redish, Vancouver School of Economics, University of British Columbia

"To Make a Killing offers a fresh and engaging adventure through the life of a little-known commodity and stock exchange speculator. The book will be a valuable read for anyone interested in financial history or American history." - Joe Martin, co-author of From Wall Street to Bay Street: The Origins and Evolution of American and Canadian Finance

"Cutten was once described by his mentor, the commodity trader James Patten, as 'not only the most daring, but the most unerring speculator the world has ever known.' Mr. Stephens's chronicle is a valiant attempt to shed light on his life." - The Wall Street Journal
