Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Born in the U.S., Duncome settled in Canada in 1815 and as chairman of the finance committee of the Parliament of Upper Canada, was deputed to gather information in the U.S. on undemocratic banking practices. His report on banking never appeared as he fled Canada charged with involvement in the Mackenzie rebellion. Instead he used the material to publish a populist work for Americans which proposed a central bank run by democratically elected officials which would provide a stable, adequate and uniform currency via a system of state branches. This is the earliest full-scale American work devoted to free (anti-charter) banking.
