What Caused the Great Depression? Video Summaries

I love the Daily Bellringer. This guy always does a great job of summarizing historical concepts! This video focuses on how personal spending and investing habits of the 1920s led to the Stock Market Crash of 1929.

This video is short and sweet but does a good job of giving the over-arching causes of the Great Depression. I particularly like how it mentions the loan cycle that was caused by the Treaty of Versailles, which many textbooks often leave out. Both videos give different but important viewpoints of what led to the Depression.
