Reviews

Comparing favorably with works by John Kenneth Galbraith, Frederick Lewis Allen, and Maury Klein, Crash! is an invaluable resource for students of history as well as economics. Essential. * Choice * Payne does what he sets out to do and he is to be credited for such a readable book (indeed I read it twice!). * EH.Net *
