Father of the Elliott Wave, This title was written shortly after the U.S. Department of State appointed Elliott to the post of Chief Accountant for Nicaragua (which at the time was under the control of US.) He was appointed the position in 1924 and the book was published in 1926. He wrote one other book entitled "The Future of Latin America," before focusing on the movement of the financial markets. He later wrote his third book with Charles J. Collins entitled "The Wave Principle." Tea Room and Cafeteria Management is an extremely scarce title showing his earlier work before his absorption in the stock market.
