The Silver Question And The Gold Question (1885)

""The Silver Question And The Gold Question"" is a historical book written by Robert Barclay in 1885. The book discusses the economic and political debates surrounding the use of silver and gold as currency during the late 19th century. At the time, there was a growing movement to shift towards the use of silver as currency, which was seen as a more accessible and democratic option compared to gold. However, this shift was met with resistance from those who believed that gold was a more stable and reliable form of currency. Barclay provides a detailed analysis of these debates, examining the arguments of both sides and exploring the potential consequences of each option. The book also includes a historical overview of the use of silver and gold as currency throughout the world, providing context for the contemporary debates. Overall, ""The Silver Question And The Gold Question"" offers a fascinating insight into the economic and political climate of the late 19th century and the debates that shaped it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
