View of the gold standard

[edit]

Today's little article change is fuelled from David Glasners blog: https://uneasymoney.com/about/, which makes quite a difference:

"In 1927 he published The Gold Standard in Theory and Practice whose subject was self-explanatory. It went through several editions. In later editions (1931, I think) he provided a very nice summary of his basic understanding of how the botched attempt to restore the international gold standard led to the Great Depression." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.212.83.17 (talk) 18:10, 29 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I generally agree with the change. I had elaborated on Hawtrey's views in the section, but forgot to update the lead. Thanks. Kingsindian   06:44, 30 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
