Summary via publisher, McGraw-Hill
Few people know, however, that he was also a daring, steel-nerved investor who built a multi-million-dollar fortune in the stock market while providing financial counsel to the likes of Winston Churchill and FDR.

As you follow Keynes from his early years with the Bloomsbury Group, through two world wars and the Great Depression Keynes’s theories and practices come to life by way of the historic and personal events that shaped them. Like today’s investors, Keynes faced markets roiled by panic, inflation, deflation, widespread unemployment, and war–and he developed a core set of principles to prosper in every climate.
