2 vols in 1, 8vo., viii, 303; vi, 322 pp., illustrations in the text, some foxing to title and occasionally elsewhere, contemporary calf gilt, marbled sides and edges, a good copy. A classic account of popular follies and the madness of crowds and an important early work of social psychology. In the preface it is stated "The object of the Author in the following pages has been to collect the most remarkable instances of those moral epidemics which have been excited, sometimes by one cause and sometimes by another, and to show how easily the masses have been led astray, and how imitative and gregarious men are, even in their infatuations and crimes". The chapters on the financial fads, are still considered crucially important even today. The Financial Times rated it second among the top ten greatest books on investment ever published. Since its first publication in 1841 it has seldom been out of print. Bernard Baruch wrote a new forward in the 1932 edition, stating that it had saved him in 1929, getting him out shortly before the market crashed. Mackay could never have foreseen how his examination of mass hysteria in the various bubbles -- tulipomania, John Law, and the South Sea -- would take on a life of its own, and commence a new field of study, the behaviour of the crowd, which would later on be revisited by Le Bon, Freud, Trotter, and Canetti. In other chapters Mackay vividly describes crusades, fortune telling, slow poisoners, witch hunts and a variety of religious cults. The author Charles Mackay (1814-1889) worked as a journalist for many years in London and North America contributing to the Telegraph and the Times. His journalistic skill can be seen in his lively portraits of imposters, thieves, quacks, pseudo-scientists, gamblers and fraudsters. Charles Ellis' Classics II. (Investors Anthology).

Erstausgabe
First edition of Mackay's important work of social psychology, studying the "madness of crowds" in its many manifestations over history. Still in print, Mackay's book has had a profound influence on economics and sociology, with many modern economists referring to his work when analysing contemporary market bubbles. The Memoirs discusses popular delusions of all types and considers the credulous enthusiasm of mankind for phenomena such as alchemy, witchcraft, relics, the Crusades, urban myths, as well as economic events such as the tulip bubble, the Mississippi Bubble, and the South Sea Bubble. "Charles Mackay's passionate erudition and urbane, unaffected prose style contributed to make him one of the chief figures in the establishment of Victorian journalism as a dignified profession" (ODNB). Dennistoun & Goodman 58; Kress C.5560; Zerden, pp. 77-8; not in Goldsmiths' or Mattioli. Three volumes, octavo (224 x 139 mm). Early 20th-century half calf by Worsfold, red morocco labels, gilt ornaments in compartments, blue endpapers, top edges gilt. Frontispieces to each volume with thin paper guards, 2 engraved portrait plates to vol. 3. Bound with half-titles in vols. II and III (only, as issued), without publisher's advertisements as often. Pen mark to rear cover of vol. III, 65 mm repaired closed tear in inner margin and 25 mm closed tear in outer margin (neither affecting text) of title page of vol. I, light fraying at extremities of first few leaves of the same volume, contents otherwise fresh. A very good copy.

SecondÂedition of this important, entertaining and influential early study of crowd behavior, subsequently used to explore popular psychology and to chart the stock market, with numerous wood-engraved illustrations, in original cloth. Octavo, 2 volumes, original cloth, gilt titles to the spine. Illustrated with numerous engravings throughout. In near fine condition, names to the title page. Uncommon in the original cloth and in this condition. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds is divided into three broad categories, including 'National Delusions,' 'Peculiar Follies,' and 'Philosophical Delusions.' The author discusses and usually debunks a wide variety of subjects and events. These include economic bubbles like the tulip craze of Holland in 1637 or the Mississippi Company financial bubble of 1719; alchemy, which was of particular interest to individuals who wanted to create gold out of lesser-valued materials; the Crusades, also known as the Middle Ages mania; witch hunts, the persecution of thousands of innocent victims that arose from either supernatural ill fortune or neighbors with a score to settle; duels; the political and religious influence on beards; and several others. The impact of Mackay s work has been remarkably far-reaching, influencing such fields as popular psychology and the stock market as noted by The New York Times, which urged: "Any investor who has not read Charles Mackay s "Tulipomania," from his classic Extraordinary Popular Delusions, first published in 1841, should grab this book for that exercise alone.".
