Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an insightful look at the political and financial crisis faced by Michigan in 1870 following a series of court decisions which deemed several railroad aid laws unconstitutional. As a result of the ruling, railroad construction came to a halt, leaving numerous municipalities holding bonds for projects that could not be completed or were already underway. The impasse created a financial crisis for the state, the ramifications of which had the potential to inflict widespread economic hardship. The author presents an in-depth analysis of the events leading up to the crisis, and provides insight into the legal and political wrangling that ensued, with the state seeking to protect its honor and economic well-being and the municipalities seeking to avoid repudiation of their debts. The result is a valuable contribution to the historical record of Michigan's political and financial development and offers lessons in fiscal responsibility and the importance of clear and enforceable legislation.
