I will make a nomination.
Reminiscences of a Stock Operator by Edwin Lefèvre (died 1943 - book was published March 1923).
It is readily available at all sources. There used to be a copy in MobileRead library before the "Great Purge". I hope it could be restored.
It is PD in Life +50, Life + 70, and now (as of Jan 1st, 2019) PD in the US!
The ultimate book about stock wheeling and dealing, before the Great Depression. A lightly fictionalised biography of Jesse Livermore, one the biggest traders in the history of the stock market.
It seems to fit the topic, perfectly. . .
