John C. Bogle Investment Classics Boxed Set: Bogle on Mutual Funds & Bogle on Investing
Two Bogle Investment Classics in One Elegant Boxed Set John C. Bogle founded Vanguard in 1974, then in the space of a few years, introduced the index mutual fund, pioneered the no-load mutual fund, and redefined bond fund management. This boxed set includes John Bogle on Investing and Bogle on Mutual Funds, now regarded as timeless investment classics, like Bogle himself. Warren Buffett has called him an “American hero” for his contributions to the investment success of ordinary investors. John Bogle on Investing wraps up the essence of his half-century of knowledge to deepen your understanding and enhance your investment success. Bogle’s investing philosophy has remained more or less constant throughout his illustrious career, and this book lays it out so you can learn from the very best. You'll learn what makes a successful investment strategy, consider the productive economics of long-term investing, and how emotional investment in financial markets is often counterproductive enough to forfeit success. Bogle discusses the "fiscal drag" of investing, and shows you how to cut down on sales charges, management fees, turnover costs, and opportunity costs, as he unravels a lifetime's worth of expertise to give you deep insight into the mind of a master at work. Certain books have redefined the way we view the world of finance and investing—books that should be on every investor’s shelf. Bogle On Mutual Funds is just such a work. Updated with a new introduction, this comprehensive book provides investors with the wisdom of the pioneer of mutual funds to help you identify and execute the ideal mutual fund investment choices for your portfolio. You'll learn the differences between common stock, bond, money market, and balanced funds, and why a passively managed "index" fund is a smarter investment than a fund managed by someone making weighted bets on individual securities, sectors, and the economy.

""John C. Calhoun, Opportunist: A Reappraisal"" by Gerald M. Capers is a book that explores the life and political career of John C. Calhoun, a prominent American politician and statesman from the 19th century. Calhoun was known for his strong advocacy of states' rights, his defense of slavery, and his opposition to tariffs and federal power.The book provides a critical reassessment of Calhoun's legacy, challenging the traditional view of him as a principled defender of constitutional government and individual liberty. Instead, Capers argues that Calhoun was primarily motivated by his own personal and political ambitions, and that his positions on key issues were often opportunistic and inconsistent.Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, including Calhoun's speeches, letters, and political writings, as well as contemporary accounts and historical scholarship, Capers offers a detailed and nuanced portrait of this complex and controversial figure. He examines Calhoun's early life and education, his rise to prominence in South Carolina politics, his role in national affairs during the Jacksonian era, and his legacy in the decades following his death.Throughout the book, Capers challenges conventional wisdom about Calhoun and his place in American history, offering a fresh perspective on one of the most important and divisive figures of the 19th century. Whether you are a student of American history, a political scholar, or simply interested in the life and career of John C. Calhoun, ""John C. Calhoun, Opportunist: A Reappraisal"" is an essential read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
