Beautifully paced, dramatically subtle and psychologically shrewd, this is Ferguson at his finest
Peter Stormonth Darling, Spectator
Ferguson is a talented writer, capable of grace and insight, but it is his ability as a historian that shows most strongly in High Financier
T. J. Stiles, The Washington Post Sunday
Its many finance lessons aside, High Financier is a pleasure to read simply as a work of literary skill. It is not only prodigiously researched but also splendidly written-clear and vivid and precise, perhaps even of enough merit to satisfy a word-stickler like Siegmund Warburg
Wall Street Journal
A timely, original and engaging biography of Siegmund Warburg
Sathnam Sanghera, The Times
This book is both a notable contribution to economic history and a fascinating portrait
Geoffrey Owen, Telegraph
