The Continental Currency and Its Revolutionary Role
A historical overview of Continental currency from its 1775 origins through 1781 depreciation, states’ repudiation, and failed efforts to redeem by taxation. It contrasts early Union sentiments with harsh enforcement, describes legal tender acts, and notes the lasting lesson on money’s nature and government power. Also reviews Augustin Cochin on slavery’s effects and Huxley on evolution, contrasting scholarly works with American policy debates.
