From Publishers Weekly

The five investors named in the subtitle of this book are undoubtedly among the most influential American investors of the 20th century: Graham and Fisher primarily as teachers, the other three for building large, successful investment companies. Ross summarizes their methods, then presents a composite version of their strategies. Is such a "greatest hits" compilation useful? After all, three of these investors have written their own books, and one could fill a small library with works by their interpreters and disciples. Many investment students will still find this book valuable as a starting point or as an accessible alternative to the originals. Ross packs a large fraction of each investor's ideas into an average of 45 pages, including enough details and formulas to make the ideas usable, yet the book is still easy to read. Benjamin Graham, by contrast, can be tedious to read and Warren Buffett is fond of dropping aphorisms that sound indisputable but provide little useful guidance for real investment decisions. One advantage here is that each method is broken down into three systematic steps, making it easy to see the commonalities and departures of each system. Biographical information is also included, giving context to the teachings. Purists will justifiably complain that this approach does not adequately capture the essence of each investor, and some will argue that grasping this essence makes all the difference between serious, disciplined investing and dilettantism. But most readers will find at least some useful insights. (Sept.)

All investors can benefit from studying how others have made fortunes in the market, and Lessons from the Legends is an excellent way to discover the strategies of five of Americas best known stock market investors. Use this book to see how you can adapt the strategies of Graham, Buffett, Price, and the others to help your own portfolios. You will surely benefit from it.

Stephen Sanborn Director of Research, Value Line Publishing, Inc.

Over a 35 year career in equity investing, I have come across few books which I have found to be useful. This book is one of the few. It belongs on my very short list of recommended reading for any serious investor.

Philip K. Swigard Berkshire Hathaway Shareholder and Private Investor

If you want to understand literature, you study the great authors; music, the great composers. Why, then, do most investment courses ignore the great investors and instead preach the efficient market theory, which tells us no one can beat the market and ignore those who do? Thankfully, Nikki Rosss Lessons from the Legends of Wall Street helps to right the score. Youll find more practical advice in this one book than in a dozen academic investment texts.

Don Phillips CEO, Morningstar, Inc.

Well done! An excellent book for the investing public. The blend of biography and academic text is unique. It makes learning more fun.

T. Wayne Whipple, CFA Executive Director, The New York Society of Security Analysts, Inc.

Articulating lessons from the deans of the investment world, this wonderful how-to book is a remarkable resource for investors.

Bernadette B. Murphy Chief Market Analyst, Kimelman & Baird LLC and Regular panelist on Wall $treet Week with Louis Rukeyser

The markets always remind us of the necessity of wise investment counsel. The insights offered by the investment Dream Team put together by Nikki Ross are as timely as they are brilliant. The wisdom and insights of these five legends can help consultants, money managers, financial advisors, stockbrokers, and most importantly the investor, develop successful investment strategies. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this outstanding and informative book and recommend it to all types of investors.

Michael T. Dieschbourg CIMA, Consulting Group, Salomon Smith Barney

Nikki Ross has meticulously mined the gold from some of the richest veins in modern timesand has refined it in a way that makes it valuable for all who want to invest intelligently. Shes made required reading for the experienced investor understandable for the novice.
