Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The United States has endured crippling financial crises, together with many other sorts of monetary disorder, throughout its history. Why? The popular answer has long been that U.S. banks have been under-regulated, that increased regulation and centralization over the years have helped, and that still more regulation and centralization is needed. In Money: Free and Unfree, George Selgin turns this conventional wisdom on its head. Through a series of painstakingly researched essays covering U.S. monetary history since before the Civil War, he traces U.S. financial disorders to their source in misguided government regulations. State governments were early culprits--but in taking advantage of the Civil War to dramatically increase its own involvement in the banking and currency system, the federal government set the stage for even worse problems to come. Instead of addressing the root causes of these crises, the Federal Reserve Act reinforced some of them, while dramatically increasing the potential for politically-motivated abuse of monetary policy. Selgin's revisionist thesis may shock and anger champions of monetary orthodoxy, but they'll be hard-pressed to refute the solid scholarship upon which that thesis rests.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. CHOSEN AS ONE OF THE WALL STREET JOURNAL?S 10 BEST BOOKS OF 2025A definitive history of the United States? recovery from the Great Depression?and the New Deal's true part in it.FDR?s New Deal has long enjoyed a special place in American history and policy?both because it redefined the government?s fundamental responsibilities and because Roosevelt?s ?bold experimentation? represented a type of policymaking many would like to see repeated.But ?the thing about bold experiments,? economist George Selgin reminds us, ?is that they often fail.? In False Dawn Selgin draws on both contemporary sources and numerous studies by economic historians to show that, although steps taken during the Roosevelt administration?s first days raised hopes of a speedy recovery from the Great Depression, instead of fulfilling those hopes, subsequent New Deal policies proved so counterproductive that over seventeen percent of American workers?more than the peak unemployment rate during the COVID-19 crisis?were still either unemployed or on work relief six years later.By distinguishing the New Deal?s successes from its failures, and explaining how the U.S. finally managed to lay the specter of mass unemployment to rest, Selgin draws salient lessons for dealing with future recessions.…

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. As the Federal Reserve struggles to fulfill its mandate in a world of low and falling interest rates, it faces yet another challenge: that of resisting a new threat to its hard-won independence.Thanks to crisis-era changes to its operating procedures, the Fed now enjoys practically unlimited powers of quantitative easing (QE): it can buy as many assets as it likes while still controlling inflation. So far, QE has been a weapon for combating recession. But if certain politicians have their way, the Fed may be forced to use it not for macroeconomic purposes but to finance backdoor spending. That's The Menace of Fiscal QE.In his brief but systematic study, George Selgin reviews the movement favoring fiscal QE, shows how it threatens both the Fed's independence and democratic control of government spending, and counters claims that it offers a low-cost means for financing such spending. Finally, he suggests a way to guard against fiscal QE without limiting the Fed's ability to counter slumps.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. When Ashlyn Vaelith arrives at Blackmoor Estate, it is meant to be a temporary retreat from the city's cold ambitions-a place to escape, reflect, and disappear. But the mansion isn't just a shadowed relic of the past. Its walls breathe memory, its halls conceal legacy, and its master, Lucien Thorne, is not a man to welcome strangers without reason.Lucien is calculated, unreadable, and bound by something far older than fortune or fame. Beneath his cold exterior lies a web of secrets tied to an ancestral pact, a family name cursed to protect what should never be remembered. Ashlyn, unknowingly entangled in the bloodlines that fuel this legacy, becomes the one piece that doesn't fit-and the only one that can break it.As the estate's silences grow louder and the truth begins to fracture around them, Ashlyn must decide whether to confront the fire that made her or surrender to the game that defines him. In a world where control is inherited and desire is its own kind of war, not every bond is meant to be broken.Set against a backdrop of gothic grandeur and buried truths, this is a story of power, memory, and the quiet collision of two ruthless hearts. …
