A very good copy of the rare first edition of Gesell’s advice for the trade unions on the current traps of the monetary system, and his antidote, free economy. After the 1918/19 revolutions, and during the hyper-inflation free economy theories were debated more widely and incorporated in working class politics. Gesell describes the monetary mechanics with examples from Argentina, where he had gathered first-hand experience as a businessman and deals with the desperate economic situation of Germany after Versailles.

Onken p. 59. OCLC locates copies at University of Connecticut, and University of Illinois.
