A very complete examination of the fads and fashions that have since passed into History.The Kindle formatting allowed me to read the "delusions" that most interested me, and then move onto the lesser known "madness."  This book has the absolute best description of the "Tulip Bubble" I have even seen, in print or onscreen.  Who knew that bulbs could be the ruin of a greater part of Europe?And why do so many of the chapters sound disturbingly contemporary?Every History aficionado should read this book!
