Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. First Edition. "A complete survey from a democratic point of view of the financial machinations of the last century." - dust jacket (not included). "The controllers of the Money Power, the men who cold-bloodedly raised their demands upon their fellow-countrymen with every [WWI] German advance in the field and with every German U-boat campaign at sea; the men who organized the creation of hundreds of millions of unnecessary debt, the men who inflated rates of interest; the men who, as the price of providing credits to free us from the threat of German slavery, enmeshed us in an interest burden of a million pounds per diem - it is they whose war-time plunderings I have sought to record in the foregoing pages. The machinations of the organized Money Power during the stress of war surely provide the most convincing of evidence that the nation must be the sole creator of money, and the guardian and banker of the savings and thrift of its citizens, if well-being and security are ever to be the common lot of men." - pgs 60-61.
