Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Prices: With Special Reference to the History of the Nineteenth Century

No attempt has been made to deal completely with the questions raised, and many difficulties will doubtless be left unsolved; but it is hoped that the following pages, as the title implies, will serve to introduce the reader to current economic ideas as to the causes which determine the purchasing power of money; while the historical chapters may prove to be a sufficient commentary on the chart at the end of the book to familiarise the reader with the actual course of prices in the nineteenth century. The requirements of students are to some extent met by the notes on further reading at the end of each chapter.
