The Federal Reserve System: A History

Rating:
Summary: Very timely and important reading
Review: The Federal Reserve banking system was created in 1913 to stabilize banking practices: while it's often in the news today, few Americans actually know the background of its creation and its effects on American lives. Donald Wells is a professor of economics from the University of Memphis with extensive studies in baking: his guide, The Federal Reserve System: A History, provides not just a review of the Federal Reserve's establishment and effects, but a survey of the entire American banking system. Very timely and important reading.
