What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce

The first edition of this very scarce work.

By Robert Lucas Nash, a regular contributor to 'The Economist' magazine and managing editor of the 'British Australasian', from which he retired to become economics editor of the 'Sydney Daily Telegraph'. He emigrated to Australia in 1893.

Nash provides 'a record of more than five hundred of our most important public securities during the ten years 1870 to 1880'.

A fascinating discussion and analysis of government spending, public investments and securities, and public finance.

Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Bumping to back strip head and tail, with small tide mark to head of front board. Internally, firmly bound. Pages clean and bright.

Very Good Indeed
