Présentation de l'éditeur
The purpose of this book is to describe clearly, and explain without technicality, the remarkable financial and economic episodes which have attended theE uropean War. The general public understood perfectly, from the very first days of the conflict, that its economic results were obtain to be as momentous as its political results. But the most experienced finandras were at loss to say beforehand what the financial character of the war would be. When it began, they foimd it equally impossible to measure the real significance of the first economic occurrences. It is hardly siuirising, therefore, that the general pubhe should have been unable to imderstand what had actually happened. Financial events were in fact so extraordinary and complicated as to leave the mind of many readers of the news in complete bewilderment. It is my hope that these chapters may serve to dear up that perplexity. Perhaps no questions have been asked more frequently since July, r9i4, than the questions how the fighting nations have been able to raise the $100,000,000 per day which 34ii ti3 ,,=, :.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. The backdrop for this book is the European War, which began in 1914, and its immense implications and unforeseen economic consequences, some of which the author claims were completely the wrong way round. The author discusses the economic and financial outcomes of the Great War as they unfolded, explaining why so many spectacularly failed to occur and giving reasons, supported by the historical precedents of the time, for what actually did. At the same time, the book explores the confusion, the sudden wealth, the false starts, and the sheer financial illiteracy that characterized the era. The author brings the complexity of international political economics to life by examining the predictions made before the war, among them the widely held belief that no nation could afford to go to war in the 20th century because of its exorbitant cost. This book tells a story not only of what happened but of what people thought and how they reacted. It documents how, in the face of the most catastrophic conflict the world had ever seen, the financial markets, governments, and economists of the day had to learn new tricks on the fly to cope with events that took everyone by surprise. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
