✅ Summary -

1873: The Rothschilds, the First Great Depression, and the Making of the Modern World by Liaquat Ahamed explores the global financial crash of 1873, which triggered a multi-decade economic meltdown. The narrative traces how speculative railway bubbles and a massive shift toward the gold standard connected and crippled markets from New York to Vienna. Through the eyes of historical figures like the Rothschild family and Karl Marx, the book reveals how this crisis permanently reshaped modern geopolitics and gave rise to the first waves of anti-globalization.
