Nine Years In The Saddle Review

Nine Years In The Saddle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
In _Nine Years in the Saddle_, James V. Lee has told an important story. More than just the life of his father, it is the tale of an American hero. "Dud" Lee was a hero, not because he was some glossy rendition of a Hollywood ideal, but because he was an average, real person who survived and thrived in rough times. Thankfully, James Lee has written about those times. As editor of Doing It Write!, an e-newsletter for writers, I've seen my share of historical books. With _Nine Years in the Saddle_, you'll feel as though you're sitting by the fireplace, listening to Dud himself talk.
Dud's life, although only one or two generations ago, is foreign to modern teenagers. Bootlegging, lion hunting, working from ranch to ranch ... it all feels like something from an adventure book or a history tome. Knowing that this was a real person, the author's father no less, brings the story into reality. Few books have been written about the real people who lived and worked, and survived, this era of American history. By writing it down, and backing it up with pictures, Lee has preserved this slice of a time past. Helen Ginger

Nine Years In The Saddle is a true-story western about the colorful years in the Southwest of a cowboy during the Great Depression of the 1930s. It tells the true story of a young man who scratched out a living in hard times by herding cattle, hunting mountain lions, and selling bootleg booze during Prohibition. You will be delighted with the humor and entranced by the real-life feats of adventure and danger of Dud Lee and his companions.--This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition.

Profiting in Economic Storms: A Historic Guide To Surviving Depression, Deflation, HyperInflation, and Market Bubbles Review

Profiting in Economic Storms: A Historic Guide To Surviving Depression, Deflation, HyperInflation, and Market Bubbles
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The author discusses the current economic environment from an historical perspective and provides a good deal of evidence that the U.S. may be on the path toward a long-term decline. For the here and now, he believes we're likely to drift into an deflationary depression followed by hyperinflation toward the later part of the decade. He provides investment ideas for every stage of the cycle. The message to me is to anticipate the future and plan your investments accordingly. There will be great opportunities, but if you stand still, you could lose a boatload. Tough times are going to last. Better be prepared.

Gold Trading Boot Camp: How to Master the Basics and Become a Successful Commodities Investor Review

Gold Trading Boot Camp: How to Master the Basics and Become a Successful Commodities Investor

This is one of the most useful trading books I've seen in a long long time.
As a broker and former Risk Manager in the financial markets, I am usually somewhat suspicious of books by "traders" and/or "pundits". I usually find myself confronted by lots of self-serving drivel and advice that is not in any way applicable to typical traders. This book is a refreshing change from that.
Every new or newer trader should read this book. The excellent charts and analysis contained on them are worth the book's price all by themselves. What I found of particular interest, though, was his honest and refreshing approach to the oft-neglected subject of Risk. Every trader should read this portion of the book.
The book lays out in intricate detail the process a true professional trader must go through to successfully speculate. Fascinating stuff!

Praise for Gold Trading Boot Camp
"If speculate you must, read Weldon first."—James Grant, Editor, Grant's Interest Rate Observer
"This book delivers on all of the essential elements of successful financial literature. Weldon provides a compelling context, walks through the metrics that affect the price action, and assimilates the decision-making process in kind. From soup to nuts, this is one of the most comprehensive tutorials I've read on the subject of commodities."—Todd Harrison, founder and CEO, Minyanville Publishing and Multimedia, LLC
"The gold price is rising in today's turbulent financial times. Preparation and knowledge are essential to profit from higher prices, and this book provides everything you need to take advantage of the trading opportunities thatlie ahead."—James Turk, founder, GoldMoney.com
"This book, with its insights into the current investment climate coincides with what many feel is a new bull market in gold. There is no 'one-size-fits-all' investment approach, but every investor who applies such preparation and rigor as Greg outlines will certainly have increased returns with fewer losses. It should be on every investor's bookshelf, handy for reference, and re-read every year. Greg puts paid to the notion of random walk!"—Kim Evans, CEO, Global Building and Supply
