《Railroads from the Investor's View Point》 - 免费有声读物

This small booklet was written in 1921 as a guide for Americans interested in investing in railroad securities.

It discusses the many shady dealings done by railroad companies and how the railroad companies were temporarily taken over by the federal government during WWI. The final part of the book also describes all the different types of railroad securities. (Summary by Elsie Selwyn)
