History of Money in the British Empire and the United States (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from History of Money in the British Empire and the United States The aim of this book is to give a short general history of money in the English-speaking countries - in the British Empire and the United States. The student is better provided with text-books on American than on English monetary history. For the latter there are at his disposal, on the one hand, books on general political and economic history of which the history of money forms comparatively only a small part, and, on the other hand, books on the various branches of the subject - on coins, prices and banking; but he finds a real difficulty in getting in any convenient compass a general knowledge of the financial development of the country. Yet the history of money has an interest of its own; its study in many cases throws fresh light on historical problems, and in its bearings on political and economic history it has an importance which, from lack of definite knowledge on the subject, the student is often apt to overlook.
