Reform of the Federal Reserve System in the Early 1930s: The Politics of Money and Banking (Routledge Library Editions: History of Money, Banking and Finance)

This book, first published in 1993, examines in detail the bureaucratic and political manoeuvring surrounding the enactment of banking and monetary reforms in the 1930s. Although banking reform influenced the politics of both the Hoover and Roosevelt presidencies, most surveys devote only a few pages to monetary disturbances and the reforms passed as a result.
