Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive review of British war finance during the First World War. It begins by describing the financial challenges faced by the British government at the outbreak of war, including the collapse of the bill and stock markets and the drain on the country's gold reserves. The author considers the emergency measures taken to address these challenges, such as the issuance of currency notes and the suspension of the gold standard. He then examines the various methods used to raise funds for the war effort, including taxation, loans, and the sale of war bonds. Finally, the book discusses the long-term consequences of the war on the British economy and the lessons that can be learned from the experience of 1914-1918. The author argues that the war had a profound impact on the British financial system and that the country's ability to fight the war was due in no small part to the resilience and adaptability of its financial institutions.
