What exactly did Ebenezer Scrooge do for a living? How much did<br>Dickens really know about the Stock Exchange? Why are stockbrokers the villains of so many of these novels? In answering questions like these, The Novelist and Mammon depicts a real world of frauds, villains and rogues as fascinating as any to be found in the fiction of the day. 2260013 6 3 1986 The Novelist and Mammon: Literary Response to the World of Commerce in the Nineteenth Century total:1|3:1| 1 3 1 0 2254131 0198128517 9780198128519 1 0 The Novelist and Mammon: Literary Response to the World of Commerce in the Nineteenth Century 3.00 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2254131.The_Novelist_and_Mammon_Literary_Response_to_the_World_of_Commerce_in_the_Nineteenth_Century 3 0 false Fri Nov 30 04:45:49 -0800 2007 Fri Nov 30 04:45:49 -0800 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2254131
