Silver

This insightful and prescient work explores the political and economic implications of the international silver market in the late 19th century. Arguing that silver represented a key tool of economic and political power for many nations, Horton shows how the rise and fall of silver values shaped the course of international relations and global trade. This book offers a fascinating look at the complex economic and political forces that have shaped the modern world.
