The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World by Niall Ferguson

informative slow-paced

3.0

I might have read this before ~ 15 years ago. Not certain. Didn't enjoy it that much. Didn't feel like it was especially enlightening nor did it tell stories very well. Maybe cause I am already in immersed in this kind of stuff, so didn't learn much. Then stories not very well told or riveting. Probably most interesting was good telling of how Dutch East India Company got started and worked, and how the French Mississippi Company scheme worked.
