Richard Roberts, author of 'Saving The City: The Great Financial Crisis of 1914', delves into the forgotten event of the first global financial crisis that occurred in London and was eclipsed by the events of World War I. Roberts considers why such a crucial event was forgotten and draws parallels between the financial crisis of 2008 and that of 1914. http://oxford.ly/HGnmWS
