History Of Bimetallism In The United States (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781024464740)

"History Of Bimetallism In The United States" by J. Laurence Laughlin, originally published in 1896, provides a detailed account of the historical debates and policies surrounding bimetallism in the United States during the 19th century. This comprehensive study delves into the economic theories and political forces that shaped the nation's monetary policy, particularly the arguments for and against the use of both gold and silver as currency.

Laughlin's work explores the challenges and controversies surrounding the silver standard and its impact on the American economy. It offers valuable insights into the economic thought of the time and the struggles to reconcile conflicting interests. This historical analysis is essential for understanding the evolution of American monetary policy and the broader context of economic debates in the late 19th century.
