Paper Pound of 1797-1821: A Reprint of the Bullion Report (Reprints of Economic Classics)
Book details
Summary
Description
A reprint of the famous Bullion Report of June 8, 1810 which "should be read by all to appreciate the merits or demerits of the myriad of tracts published during the 'Restriction' period" (T.A. Stephens A Contribution to the Bibliography of the Bank of England). The introduction by Edwin Cannan not only provides an account of the debates leading up to the resumption of specie payments but also provides an indication of Cannan's later position in the monetary debates of the 1920's and 1930's which led him into collision with the view of Keynes. "Another of Cannan's contributions to the history of economic thought that may be singled out." The New Palgrave
