Title: Understanding Economic Recovery in the 1930s
First published: December 1, 2003
Description: "One of the watershed periods of the twentieth century, the Great Depression was the defining event for at least one generation of world citizenry. Although much has been written about the almost four-year economic collapse that began in mid-1929, very little has been written about the recovery from those cataclysmic times." "Long, tortuous, and uneven as it was, there was indeed a recovery - a revitalization period that lasted over twice as long as the decline itself. In this important book, Frank G. Steindl explores the much-neglected topic of the recovery, concentrating in particular on the macroeconomic developments responsible for the move back to a pre-Depression-level economy."--Jacket.
