Publisher's Synopsis
This incredible study, originally compiled over 100 years ago and used for university lectures, articulately describes the actions and thought processes that fueled the collapse of the French economic system. Great care was taken to ensure no context was altered in translation, while increasing readability by adjusting for the modern American English vernacular.
With far less articulation and far more sardonic quipping, I have sought to draw similarities between the account of life and politics in 1790's France to that of both the early founding and modern regulatory and political whims witnessed in America. Unfortunately, the parallels drawn between countries and practices ring alarms in the logical processing of my mind. When memes are the source of both stock investment decisions and humor, when cryptocurrencies synch into the same binary categories, I believe there is great cause for concern.Author Andrew Dickson White was the co-founder and inaugural President of Cornell University and Yale member of the secret Skull and Bones society. He served many positions, including New York Senate, Ambassador to Russia, and Ambassador to Germany.
