Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the historical development of currency, particularly examining the relationship between metallic and paper money from the 16th-19th centuries in England. The author argues that the value of currency is primarily determined by the amount of precious metal it contains, and that paper money, while convenient, is prone to inflation if not backed by an equivalent amount of bullion. The author's views are rooted in the classical economic theories of David Ricardo and others, and provide a valuable historical perspective on the nature of money and its role in economic growth.
