In Full Promo Mode

NB Sundays, as ever, are for thought pieces, lately all about gold as my book on that subject is about to come out. Midweek remains for markets

We are now into launch week, so lots to promote: Secret History of Gold Fever

This week I’ve been in interview mode

* Above we have me telling Ian Collins on Talk TV how rubbish the government is.

* Here is me talking to Tom Winnifrith

* Here James Delingpole.

I have been working on a short film as well, which I hope to have ready for tomorrow.

The book also had its first review - in the Telegraph.

Here is what people have said so far

“A fabulous, fascinating, fantastical tale” Matt Ridley, author of How Innovation Works

”It doesn’t just tell you about gold – it makes you feel its weight through history. It’s just so interesting," Toby Young, Spectator

”Written with both insight and Dominic’s signature humour, this is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the lengths human beings will go to for the promise of riches,” Rory Sutherland, author of Alchemy.

“This delightful book is a most insightful and enjoyable romp through history and a well-researched, educational tour de force,” James Turk, author of The Money Bubble

”Dominic Frisby’s writings about economics and finance are, like his comedy, intelligent, beautifully crafted and always ahead of the curve. The Secret History of Gold is well-informed, utterly coherent and very, VERY timely.” Liam Halligan, Telegraph

“Dominic Frisby is most trusted source of information for anything to do with gold,” Konstantin Kisin, Triggernometry

”Well-researched and razor-sharp. Written with passion, principle - and the occasional punchline,” Al Murray, comedian and historian

”Possibly the best-timed book ever,” Merryn Somerset Webb, Bloomberg

“A brilliant, highly readable guide to the most alluring material of all,” Luke Johnson, investor and entrepreneur.

"Understand the history of gold, and you start to see what politicians and central banks would rather you didn’t. Dominic reveals all with clarity and force,” Rob Dix , author of The Price of Money.

“Frisby entertains impressively and convincingly … his tales of German and Japanese gold-hunting during the Second World War are eye-popping … a colourful and sly adversary to contemporary financial and political pieties,” Simon Ings, the Telegraph

The Secret History of Gold is available at Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops. The book comes out on August 28.

Amazon is currently offering 20% off.

Until next time,

Dominic
