Publisher's Synopsis
Years of Dishonor: Or The Cause of the Depression in Mining Stocks, Also the Remedy is a book written by Henry B. Clifford in 1883. The book is a detailed account of the decline of the mining industry in the United States and the factors that led to the depression in mining stocks. Clifford provides an in-depth analysis of the financial and economic conditions that contributed to the decline of the industry, including the overproduction of silver and the resulting decrease in its value, the lack of government regulation, and the manipulation of the market by speculators. The author also offers a solution to the problems facing the mining industry, proposing a system of government regulation and oversight to prevent the abuses that had led to the depression. The book is an important historical document, providing insights into the economic and political conditions of the late 19th century and the challenges facing the mining industry at that time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of mining in the United States and the economic forces that shape our world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
