He wasn't an economist. He wasn't flashy. But when the U.S. economy teetered on the edge, Jerome Powell became the steady hand America didn't know it needed.
Appointed by presidents from both parties, Powell guided the Federal Reserve through trade wars, a global pandemic, historic inflation, and political attacks-all while staying calm, focused, and clear. This book takes you inside the mind of a quiet leader who made some of the biggest financial decisions of our time.
From Wall Street to Washington, Powell's story is one of discipline, trust, and leadership under pressure. Jerome Powell: The Lawyer Who Tamed the Markets reveals how a careful thinker helped steer the world's largest economy through chaos-and what his legacy means for the future.
