About the author

John L. King is also listed as John Lafayette King in several book and library records. Confirmed works associated with his name include Human Behavior and Wall Street (1973), How to Profit in the Next Depression (published by 1988), and Chaos in America (1990).

From the available descriptions, his books focus on economics, market behavior, long historical cycles, and practical responses to downturns. Chaos in America is presented as an updated follow-up to his earlier depression-era investing book, continuing his interest in economic instability and how ordinary readers might prepare for it.

Reliable biographical detail beyond the books themselves is difficult to verify from the sources found in this search, so it is best to view him primarily through his published work rather than through a well-documented personal profile.
