Hey guys, I'm doing my masters dissertation on the US depression of 1920-21, and currently on the look-out for materials that I can read on. Please do suggest some good books that deal with the episode in detail. Also, feel free to suggest a possible question that could be answered as a further progression in the study of this episode in history. Thank you!

Prashanth,

I suggest looking at this article and its bibliography: Daniel Kuehn, "A Critique of Powell, Woods, and Murphy on the 1920–1921 Depression."

...and after that ^^, read this. Ignore the comments that aren't Esuric's or Daniel Kuhn's, this is where the meat is.
