Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a lively, non-partisan dialogue between Uncle Sam and six men of various professions grappling with the complexities of establishing a financial and banking system for the United States. Running from 1862 to 1894, the formative years of the nation's financial system…are brought to life through this series of discussions, in which the author does not hesitate to lay bare the realities of the time and the extraordinary stresses the system was put under during the Civil War. The topics covered include the use of credit instruments, land credit, government credit, commercial credit, bank reserves, the clearing house, and banking practices of the era. Of particular interest is the discussion on the gold standard - how it became the universally accepted standard of value, its strengths, and its perceived weaknesses. This book is both timely and timeless, shedding light on the complex decisions that shape our financial system, and revealing the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
