The Great Depression and Wall Street

For a glance at how the Great Depression affected the popular view of Wall Street, see how the title of this book changed:

The 1930 title: Hetty Green, a woman who loved money.

The 1936 title: The witch of Wall Street, Hetty Green.

 
Same book: The 1936 edition was a reprint of the 1930 edition. Only the title changed.
