Lombard Street
Financial observer and journalist Walter Bagehot sheds light on the world of banking in his influential tract Written in response to a nineteenth-century banking crisis in England, Walter Bagehot’s influential treatise was one of the first to clearly explain complex financial systems like international banking, currency, and corporate finance in clear and easy-to-understand language. Credit, Bagehot suggests, is based primarily on trust. When the banks lose the public’s trust, the entire system can collapse. In Lombard Street, Bagehot—who was the editor in chief of the Economist—sets forth a series of proposals for the strengthening and survival of struggling financial institutions, such as allowing irresponsible banks to collapse and creating strong central banks to combat inflation. His insights are as relevant in today’s economic climate as they were when the book was first published in 1873. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
Gold and the Gold Standard
Edwin Walter Kemmerer was one of the unsung heroes of the 20th century. A Professor of Economics at Princeton, he was known as the “money doctor” between the wars, helping countries to establish and maintain strong currencies between 1923 and 1933. He was a firm advocate of the gold standard and favored hard money with convertibility domestic and international. This is his major treatise: Gold and the Gold Standard: The Story of Gold Money, Past, Present, and Future, which was first published in 1944. In it, Kemmerer reviews the history of gold and its outstanding merit as a currency and presents a plan that likely may have saved the world from hyperinflation and the booms and busts of the past 50 years.
