Mahar lays out the origins of the boom and takes students to Wall Street, Main Street, and Washington, allowing them to see the story through the eyes of fund managers, market gurus, analysts, politicians, and 401(k) investors, who helped create the longest-running bull market in U.S. history.

Filled with colorful portraits of many of the central players-Alan Greenspan, Henry Blodget, James Cramer, Abby Joseph Cohen-Bull! Draws together and illuminates the complex web of relationships that kept the market aloft."Highly readable and insightful...makes a devastating case against the contention that the market is almost perfectly efficient."-New York Times
