Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Financial History of Kansas, Vol. 5
The aim of this work is similar to that of any other standard history, namely, to report and explain facts. It is an attempt, therefore, to trace as faithfully as possible the financial history of the State. Events bearing directly and indirectly on the financial life of the State are narrated and with as little tres passing as possible on the domain Of political history. How ever, financial causes are not divorced from their effects, whether these effects be political, social or economic.
The arrangement of the work is according to the topical and chronological requirements of the subject-matter. An appendix is given at the end, containing valuable statistical data, only part Of which appear in the body of the work. A bibliography is also added, showing the sources Of information.
Itemized receipts and expenditures have not been tabulated in the usual form, the state system (or rather, lack Of system) Of accounting rendering such a tabulation useless. James E. Boyle.
