Item description from seller

First edition. 8vo. xxxix, [1], 360 pp., black and white photographic frontispiece portrait of the author. Original red cloth, spine lettered and ruled in gilt, front cover lettered in blind within a double blind fillet border, dust jacket (internally clean and unmarked; the cloth remains bright and virtually unworn; jacket faintly toned with some minor loss to tips of spine panel and corners, still an excellent copy overall). London, P.S. King & Son, Ltd. A spirited, albeit eccentric polemic written in the year of the 1929 Wall Street crash by the Indian journalist Frederic E. Holsinger, former managing editor of the Indian Daily Mail, Bombay. The book was reviewed positively at the time of publication in The New Statesmen and Nation as 'A book which in simple and non-technical makes a sensational exposure of what is really wrong in the economic system and of the fallacies and contradictions in the teachings of the Economists'.
