Preface: A republic of deadbeats: a few technical terms
Monkey jackets, the uncorked Mississippi, and the birth of caterpillar banks
The second bank, the monkey jacket war, and Tenskwatawa's revenge
The politics of panic, the economics of rags
Who put the roar in the Roaring Twenties?
Postscript: Here be dragons: what's wrong with how historians and economists have written about financial panics..
