Summary "WALL STREET STORIES" by Edwin Lefèvre is a collection of fictional short stories written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the intricate and often tumultuous world of finance, particularly focusing on the lives and experiences of various characters within the Wall Street environment. The narratives tackle the challenges, risks, and moral dilemmas faced by those involved in stock trading and investment. The opening of the collection introduces Fullerton F. Colwell, a hardworking and sympathetic figure in a prominent Wall Street firm, as he deals with the recently widowed Mrs. Hunt who is seeking financial advice after her husband's death. The story highlights Colwell's meticulous nature and concern for the widow's well-being as he navigates the complexities of the stock market on her behalf. As he tries to provide her with a sound investment, the tension between personal responsibility and the calculating business of Wall Street is established, setting an insightful tone for the collection's exploration of financial ethics and human relationships in a high-stakes industry.
