Fascinating Read
Market Wizards is fascinating from cover to cover. I am reading parts of it for the third time. The wisdom in this book is voluminous. Now if I would only listen to Market Wizards's lessons when I'm trading...

Great Insight via interviews
Book offers excellent insight into some of the best speculators, traders, and investors from the late 20th century. Well worth the read if you're serious about speculating. Some of the interviews won't apply to your method or style but it's more than possible to gleen something from each.

Great trading book---if you want to learn how to trade and about the market
This is a classic. Probably one of the best, what the best traders did...and how the did it. Given many prop trading desks may never have the chance to leverage 20 or 30X, this book may turn into a classic history book!
