Today I came across an electronic collection of 13 e-books by economists Hans F. Sennholz and Robert Jackson Smith under the combined title, "Age of Inflation." These are electronic versions of books that are out of print and mostly can't be found anywhere, which the publisher is offering for a combined total of $19.95 for all 13 e-books. That's normally the price for just one book, but not in this case.
The publisher quotes Congressman Ron Paul of Texas saying of the lead author, "Dr. Sennholz was one of the foremost free-market economists of his generation and an inspiration to tens of thousands of people around the world." Dr. Paul is well versed in the inflationary roots of the Federal Reserve, and Dr. Sennholz was one of the formative influences on Paul's thinking during the 1970s.
The collection is led by a book of the same name, Age of Inflation, by Hans F. Sennholz. The publisher says of this book, "[It] is an enlightening and sobering analysis of the history and theory of inflation in the twentieth century. Written from the perspective of the Austrian School of Economics, the book recounts the German experience with inflation and price controls from World War I to the end of World War II. It deftly exposes the errors of the monetarists and their faith in political money, and examines the policies and consequences of the Federal Reserve System, offering recommendations for restoring a sound monetary system." It also includes Money and Freedom by the same author, which includes the highly descriptive claim, "Sound money and free banking are not impossible; they are merely illegal."
Here's the entire list of books included in the package:
Age of Inflation, Hans F. Sennholz Age of Inflation Continued, Hans F. Sennholz Money and Freedom, Hans F. Sennholz Inflation, or Gold Standard?, Hans F. Sennholz Under the Shadow of Inflationomics, Hans F. Sennholz The Fed's Balancing Act, Hans F. Sennholz Hedge Funds Curb the Business Cycle, Hans F. Sennholz Principles of Inequality, Hans F. Sennholz Money is Flooding the World Markets, Hans F. Sennholz Why Inflationomics is So Popular, Robert Jackson Smith Inflation is a Political Creation, Robert Jackson Smith The Best Money Can Buy, Robert Jackson Smith There's a Limit to What the Fed Can Do, Robert Jackson Smith
This is a collection that every Fed critic needs to have in their arsenal. It will help you to better understand the damaging role the Federal Reserve plays destroying the value of our money. It will also give you ammunition you need to make it clear to people you know why the Fed is such a danger to us all.
