The Money Question, by George Henry Shibley, originally published in 1896, delves into the economic turmoil caused by the significant fall in general prices during the late 19th century. Shibley argues that this deflationary period had evil effects on society and proposes a remedy: bimetallism at a ratio of 16 to 1, alongside governmental control of paper money. This, he believes, would secure a stable measure of prices and create stable money. The book presents a detailed monetary history spanning from 1850 to 1896, examining the economic policies and events that led to the crisis. Shibley’s work is a valuable resource for understanding the debates surrounding monetary policy in the United States during a pivotal era in its economic development. His advocacy for bimetallism and government intervention reflects a broader concern for economic stability and social welfare.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
