New York: Barron's, 1932. First edition. xi, [1], 252 pp. 8vo. Publisher's black cloth. Extremities rubbed, cloth split at head of sale. First edition. xi, [1], 252 pp. 8vo. "The third important member of the triumvirate which professed the validity of the Dow Theory was Robert Rhea. He followed Charles Dow and William P. Hamilton" (Zerden).
"While confined to bed with illness for ten years, Rhea studied the Dow's action thoroughly, eventually becoming convinced that it provided the only accurate method for forecasting stock movement. Idolizing Dow and William P. Hamilton, Rhea formulated a complete history of Dow Theory and, in conjunction with students of the theory from across the U. S., defined its terminology. This clear and precise work is the result" (Dennistoun).

From the Preface: "It is hard to realize that little over thirty years ago, Dow was presenting a radically novel idea, when he showed that beneath the fluctuations in individual stocks there was present at all times a trend of the market as a whole. Until then people who thought about such matters at all generally assumed that fluctuations in the prices of stocks were individual and unrelated, dependent entirely on the circumstances of the particular company and the current attitude of those speculators who chose to trade in each particular stock.

Description:
New York: Barron's, 1932. First edition of this classic work by one of the pioneering figures in the history of Dow Theory. Octavo, original cloth. Inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "To Katherine Hubert from the compiler of these notes Robert Rhea June 22, 1933." Laid into this volume is a pamphlet by Rhea, entitled the "Dow Theory Comment." Books inscribed by Rhea are rare. Originally published serially by Barron's, it is an explanation of Dow Theory development and an attempt to define its usefulness as an aid to speculation. Rhea carefully studied 252 editorials of Charles H. Dow and William Peter Hamilton in order to present Dow Theory in terms that would be useful for the individual investor.
