Dominic Frisby

Dominic Frisby is that unusual combination, a comedian and a financial writer. He has written two previous books, Life After the State (2013) and Bitcoin (2014), both for Unbound. Daylight Robbery: The Past, Present and Future of Tax, was published by Penguin Portfolio in 2019.

His latest book, The Secret History of Gold (Penguin, 2025), is the definitive biography of the metal that has shaped our world – and may yet determine its fate.
