Meanwhile, I have The Trillion Dollar Meltdown on my Christmas list. Since there have been so many comparisons of our current situation with the Great Depression, I have also put The Forgotten Man: A New History of the Great Depression on my Christmas list as well.
While on the subject, let me also say that although I believe Alan Greenspan deserves much of the blame for the housing bubble and the resulting financial crisis, his book, The Age of Turbulence, is still an excellent read.
