Personal Finance Editorial Review
The book 'Gold: The Once and Future Money' is a historical, global research tome on economic history, the role gold has played in it, and the benefits of hard money in underpinning economic growth and Prosperity. The book is insightful and well-written, but it gets bogged down in extraneous historical detail that interferes with the flow, and the author repeatedly uses the term 'gold standard' regardless of whether referring to a classical gold standard or a gold-exchange standard. A few pages on topics like the inherent conflict of a national currency serving as a global reserve or the dangerous and unsustainable expansion of credit that occurs under a gold-exchange standard would have been of great service to the reader. Although the chapter's second-half chapters take a long time to read and become quite tedious, the book has excellent historical detail and is a nice summary of the role of gold in the global economy.
