This title describes the day of the Wall Street Crash, and the devastating effect it had on the economy of the United States. It looks at the events leading up to 'Black Tuesday' and what happened to the millions of people who had invested on the stock-market. Real life accounts are included in moment-in-time boxes, acting as a freeze-frame of people's thoughts, emotions and experiences as personal fortunes were lost and livelihoods ruined. It is complete with photographs, glossary, timeline and index.
