The Economic Consequences of the Peace

first edition 1 vols. 8vo

1920 · New York

by Keynes, John Maynard
New York: Harcourt, Brace and Howe, 1920. First American Edition. 1 vols. 8vo. Original blue cloth, very good. First American Edition. 1 vols. 8vo. A book whose prophetic insight into the terms imposed on the Central Powers at the end of World War I is now legendary.“[It]…Has the claim to be regarded as Keynes's best book. In none of the others did he succeed so well in bringing all his gifts to bear on the subject at hand... The writing is angry, scornful and, rarely for Keynes, passionate." (Skidelsky, p.384) The book was originally printed in an edition of 5,000 but 2,000 were lost at sea between Edinburgh and London. (Inventory #: (truncated)
