In the long run we are all dead
A Tract on Monetary Reform
Macmillan, 1923.
First edition. Publisher's blue cloth, lettered gilt, in the original buff printed dustwrapper. A near fine copy, light bump to the fore-edge of the upper cover, in a very good dustwrapper indeed, light wear to the corners with a little toning to the spine.
The first of Keynes' significant lasting contributions to monetary theory, in which he takes on the gold standard (dismissing it as "a barbarous relic") and attempts to influence British economic policy in the inter-war period. The book also yields what is probably Keynes' most famous quote, "In the long run we are all dead".
Scarce in a dustwrapper.
