  Don't buy this book! July 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book, or booklet really (113 pages), is the worst work I have ever read on investing in silver. On one level, the poor sentence structure and misspellings are a constant annoyance. There are also no footnotes or bibliography. The eleven chapters, Supply and Demand, The Photography Myth, Is Silver Money (sic), Silver Stocks - How to Pick a good Mining Company (sic), etc. are unrelated to each other and consist mainly of rambling thoughts. I would have to place this work on the level of a middle school first draft.
 Best Information About Silver I've Come Across June 26, 2007
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
David Morgan the author, has done one of the best jobs I've ever seen, in explaining the demand and supply problems that presently are causing silver prices to move up. He not only covers silver, but gold as well, just not in as much detail. If your considering buying or investing in silver, this book is a must. If your not thinking about silver as an investment you need this book even more. He not only proves his point, he gives plenty of online sites to investagate the case for silver moving up. Written in 2006 the information is up to date and right to the point....

Content:
The book contain 11 short chapters which takes us from the fundamentals driving the silver sector as the supply and demand in Chapter 1, then the misconception that photography is the major driver of the silver sector (Chapter 3), fraudulent activities of the silver & gold leasing (Chapter 4). David Morgan explains very well, why silver is money and not a commodity in Chapter 6. Chapter 7 is devoted to the new uses for silver and the coming demand squeeze, Then from chapter 8 to 10 he briefly discuss different types of investments alternatives in the sector with bullion and coins, silver & mining stocks and leveraged type of investments. He finishes with some future price projections for silver.
Positive:
- If you read a book about a sector such as small as silver, you want facts, lots of them... the book sums up what you need to know about silver market that is positive!
- An easy to read book with a good combination of history and economic of the silver sector.
- The price of the book.
Negative:
- Maybe a more balanced view on the silver market (i.e not so bullish all the time).
Overall i think David Morgan does a good job giving us the skinny on silver in 110 pages. This is one of the few books about the silver sector, and absolutely worth the few hours it takes to read it.
Serious hard assets investor will be excited reading this book. On the other hand for short term speculators this is unfortunately not a book for you, it will only tell how to invest on silver for the years to come and that is unfortunatly not enough for the trader.

A great book on silver investing. A quick and easy to read book on the fact that silver maybe the last investment left for the have nots in the 21st century.
The secret to surviving the next few years is keeping your wealth in real money, not in the U.S. dollar. Buy things that hold their value and are exchangeable all over the world. Commodities such as gold and silver have a world market that transcends national borders, politics, religions, and race. A person may not like someone else's religion, but he'll accept his gold and silver.
One of the reasons why I'm bullish on gold and silver is because the American public is still sound asleep to this asset class. Most Americans have no idea how or where to buy physical gold and silver. The outlets that sell gold and silver I have visited are already low on inventory.
If and when the American public wakes up to the reality that their dollars are not money, but a currency, the panic and stampede will begin. Should that happen, today's prices for gold and silver will look like bargains. Especially for silver.

A well written book in simplied terms that can inform the new investor or professional manager/trader. There is some great insight as to why the great underevaluation of silver relative to gold & copper exists. It gives great advice on how one can profit from silver via physicals, futures and stocks. The photography myth is explained as well. For its low cost it a mandatory read for someone considering investment in silver, silver futures/options and/or silve stocks.
