Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tracts Relating to the Currency of the Massachusetts Bay, 1682-1720 While prosecuting the examination of authorities which preceded the publication of the two volumes entitled "Currency and Banking in the Province of the Massachusetts Bay," I turned the leaves of between forty and fifty contemporaneous pamphlets which were issued by our local press and devoted to the discussion of the topics suggested by the titles of these volumes. The greater part of these tracts were rare, even the most common of them being found only in libraries which have for years had a department specially devoted to Americana. The collections in the immediate vicinity of Boston contain nearly all of them, but if one would see "Severals relating to the Fund," he must go to the Watkinson Library at Hartford. If he would see "Some Proposals to benefit the Province," he must visit the Library of the American Antiquarian Society at Worcester. One of them, Douglass´s "Discourse concerning the Currencies," has been reprinted by the American Economic Association. Another, "Money the Sinews of Trade," was reproduced by Robert Lewis Kennedy of New York. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
