Field, A.N. (Arthur Nelson)
The Truth About the Slump - What the News Never Tells
194 + xiv pages. Index. "This book tells the story of who caused the slump (Great Depression) and how they caused it, and it directs attention to two simple steps that can be taken to save our farmers and traders... The depression from which we now suffer is due to an artificially induced variation in the purchasing power of money. In these pages will be found ample evidence in support of this statement. The quarter from which the trouble is coming is indicated, and the amazing manner in which the machinery for monetary control of the world was established is traced out." - from Introduction. Covers tanned with age. Binding intact. Prior owner's name atop front cover. Contents considerably annotated in soft pencil. Most of blank back leaf missing. Above-average but not excessive wear.

FREEMAN (Arthur & Janet Ing)
Anatomy of an Auction: Rare Books at Ruxley Lodge, 1919.
First edition, viii, 169, [1]pp., frontis., orig. cloth, d.w. The dispersal of the Foley family library in October 1919 was notable for the richness of the books sold - and for the general inadequacy of the prices they fetched. Drawing on records kept by principal participants in the sale and in the four subsequent "knock-outs", the Freemans reveal the intricacies of a practice whose workings have not previously been subject to such detailed and informed scrutiny.
