About the Author:
David R. Johnson is a professor of history in the Division of Behavioral and Cultural Sciences at the University of Texas at San Antonio.
From Booklist:
Johnson's history of counterfeiting in the U.S. is closely tied in with the evolution of the secret service. He establishes how the service developed as a federal regulatory agency to control the creation and flow of illegal tender. The account is a mix of anecdotes about the characters who plied this interesting, illegal trade and a look at how efforts to control this criminal underworld supported the growing power of the federal government. To be indexed. Denise Perry Donavin
