Overview

Originally published in 1925. This book sets forth a plan to stabilize the currency at a time in which there was much discussion of what to radically change to improve the state of the flow of gold and discounts and interests. It addresses such questions as ‘what is a standard of currency’ and ‘to whom does the gold belong’ among its discussion of the best way forward. A fascinating insight into 1920s economic history.
