War and Lombard Street

First published in 1915, Hartley Withers' seminal work on the relationship between war and finance remains as relevant today as it was a century ago. Withers argues that the financial power of a nation is intimately linked to its military power, and explores the complex relationship between war and economic stability in detail. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the relationship between economics and national security.
