Inspired by the 1903 book by Frank Norris, THE PIT is the story of successful businessman who casually begins trading, only to be swept in and ultimately ruined by the Chicago futures markets, a fascination "worse than liquor, worse than morphine." Featuring pages of lush, color and B&W photos of the trading floor's most thrilling era along with an epilogue documenting its final years, this is the definitive catalog of the legendary Chicago trading floors.
