Rothbard Murray N. A history of money and banking in the United States

Ludwig Von Mises Inst, 2002. — 510 p.In this volume, Murray Rothbard has given us a comprehensive history of money and banking in the United States, from colonial times to World War II, the first to explicitly use the interpretive framework of Austrian monetary theory. But even aside from the explicitly Austrian theoretical framework undergirding the historical narrative, this book does not look or feel like standard economic histories as they have been written during the past quarter of a century, under the influence of the positivistic new economic history or cliometrics.
