Bank Monopoly: The Cause Of Commercial Crises (1864)

By George Guthrie

Book Overview

Bank Monopoly: The Cause Of Commercial Crises (1864) is a book written by George Guthrie that explores the role of bank monopolies in causing commercial crises. Guthrie argues that bank monopolies, which give a few powerful banks control over the financial system, lead to economic instability and crises. He provides historical examples of bank monopolies causing financial crises, such as the Panic of 1837 in the United States. Guthrie also discusses the negative effects of bank monopolies on small businesses and the working class. He advocates for the regulation of banking systems to prevent monopolies and promote economic stability. The book provides a critical analysis of the banking system and its impact on the economy, making it a valuable resource for economists and historians interested in financial history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
