On May 1792, two dozen brokers gathered under the shade of a buttonwood tree at 68 Wall Street and drew up lines to govern securities trading.This historic agreement set a minimum for brokers' comissions and laid the foundations of the NYSE.
Henceforth, Wall Street would represent more than a narrow lane in lower Manhattan.It would symbolize an industry, a state of mind, it was to be the American finance itself.

So meaty , intriguing and hardcore was the choosing of the capital of the USA. Debates , compromises , below waist punches , in order to set the capital on the Potomac river.

This book is a mammoth to chew, yet such an immersive read , so much historical knowledge.
Alexander Hamilton , Washington , James Madison , Thomas Jefferson , we get them all , public , private life , how they interacted with each other and how they shaped the new born nation.
What a great efffort was needed right after the independence to make the states adopt a common constitution and a federal gonverment !
