Item description from seller

An excellent example of Churchill's literary craftsmanship, revising a galley proof on economics around the second anniversary of the Wall Street Crash, in which he suffered heavy financial losses and increasingly relied on writing for income. Churchill examines the parlous state of the world economy, arguing that the crisis stems from a loss of confidence rather than productive capacity, and that recovery requires restoring confidence through firm leadership, international cooperation, and economic discipline. He has made around a dozen corrections in red ink, chiefly to punctuation, along with two textual alterations and one omission. All were incorporated into the article as published in Answers, 10 October 1931 (Volume LXXXVII, Number 262). It was subsequently reprinted in the Collected Essays, Volume II, pages 239-42. An earlier draft survives in Churchill's papers at the Churchill Archives (CHAR 8/298); this galley is the final version returned for publication, signed to confirm his revisions. Provenance: the collection of Steve Forbes, chairman of Forbes Magazine, and presidential candidate in the 1996 and 2000 US elections. Cohen C366. Narrow printed sheet (630 x 156 mm). Browned, paperclip impression, but without wear or repair: in very good condition.…
