This collection consists of approximately 150 documents relating to the monetary role of gold from the seventeenth century to the present. It primarily uses government reports, legislation, laws and the texts of political speeches to map the rise of gold-backed currencies in the major west Europeans powers, the establishment of the international gold standard, and gold's official place in the post-gold standard monetary world. The Monetary History of Gold will be a useful reference for economic historians and for others studying the international monetary system and international political economy. Within these fields it will be an essential aid to those studying the history of the traditional gold standard. It will also be of interest to those studying the development of gold-backed currencies in Britain and the United States. Anyone interested in gold's role as a monetary asset would find this a comprehensive collection of important documents.
