Publisher's Synopsis
The Reform of the Currency is a book written by Henry Raymond Mussey in 1911. The book is focused on the monetary system of the United States and the need for reform. Mussey argues that the current system is flawed and needs to be restructured in order to prevent economic instability and promote growth.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which examines a different aspect of the currency system. Mussey discusses the history of the currency in the United States, including the use of gold and silver, the establishment of the Federal Reserve, and the role of banks in the system.Mussey also proposes several solutions to the problems he identifies. He suggests the creation of a central bank that would regulate the currency and provide stability to the economy. He also recommends the adoption of a gold standard, which would tie the value of the currency to a fixed amount of gold.Overall, The Reform of the Currency is a comprehensive analysis of the monetary system in the United States at the turn of the 20th century. Mussey's arguments and proposals are still relevant today and continue to be debated by economists and policymakers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
