In the turbulent years between passage of the Federal Reserve Act
(1913) and the Bretton Woods Agreement (1945), the peoples of the
Western world suffered two World Wars, two major and several minor
international financial panics, an epidemic of currency
devaluations and debt repudiations, civil wars, and revolutions.
They also enjoyed a decade of unprecedented prosperity and a decade
of unprecedented depression and deflation. They also saw the
beginning of a period of prolonged, world-wide inflation.No period
in history could serve better as a case study for the analysis of
applied economic policy. From his vantage point as economist for
the Chase Manhattan Bank and editor of the Chase Economic Bulletin,
who participated in much of what he records, Dr. Anderson here
describes the climactic events of a turbulent era.Arthur Kemp is
Professor Emeritus of Economics at Claremont McKenna College.
