Ferdinand Lips is still a highly respected in monetary history and economic circles, and this book is a ripping yarn of the history of gold, money, printing paper money and the all too human mismanagement of it.
Perhaps not the perfect book to get started on this journey with, but a second or third read for elevating your understanding rapidly again. You might find 'End the Fed' by Ron Paul a better start, and also an excellent book.
Having read this you will really understand what currency wars are, and why gold has been the bane of the central planners, central bankers and the greater financial authorities when they have tried to fight it and rewrite certain almost 'gravitational laws' of economics.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, read it over a weekend, and have bought copies for many friends and contacts. I have even reviewed it on my website [...] Enjoy a great and timeless read that many greats of the gold market still pay homage to!
If you just have a passing interest in how money works, or are interested in gold and silver as money and investments, or want to understand the causes of our troubled financial history especially the current mess then this book is essential.
The author's anger at the betrayal of Switzerland and how it was bullied off the gold standard is palpable toward the end of the book. His feelings are easy to understand considering what the country has given up. Switzerland has not gained but has instead been besmirched, beaten and robbed.
To quote a review of the book (listed on the back cover), 'Mr Lips makes the history of gold come alive and will enthuse you to join the war for the sake of freedom, free markets and social peace. You will want 50 copies for your best friends, press and politicians.' Chevalier Harry D. Schultz, International Harry Schultz Letter.
With many direct citations from various sources, the story is little repetitive on occasion and fragmentary in style. However, the inner workings of the financial world - including its central banks, bullion banks, IMFs, gold mining companies, and economists - are explained and illustrated in very accessible manner.
This chronicle was finished in the Summer of 2001, just before the events of 9/11 and at the bottom of the long lasted (and manipulated) gold bear market, when the on-going precious metals bull market was starting off. Still highly recommended reading for investors and monetary history buffs alike.
