Has anybody read George Bancroft’s ‘A Plea For The Constitution’ here? I ran across it a couple years ago at my local library, where I bought it for a quarter.
I neglected to read it for a year, and when I did I was amazed.
George Bancroft was at one time the Secretary of the Navy, and founder of the naval academy of Annapolis, amongst other things.
His book is an arguement against paper money and for the gold standard.
