1935426j0787Oxford: The Alden Press. Good in Fair dust jacket. 1935. First Edition. Hardcover. "The nom-de-plume 'A Fellow Pilgrim' masks the identity of Arthur Kitson one to whose credit stands the authorship of a whole series of authoritative works on economic and financial subjects. He here indulges his fancy by speculating how John Bunyan might have portrayed his hero Christian and his friends and what their encounters would have been had their pilgrimages been conducted during recent Great Depression-era years. Herein is much food for thought and perhaps a moral for the present troubled times." - dust jacket. "Kitson 1859-1937 invented the vaporised oil burner and held many patents. He became convinced Jewish bankers were the cause of his bankruptcy and most of the world's miseries. He formed the Economic Freedom League with Frederick Soddy and was active in this venture through the 1920s. He sent Ezra Pound a copy of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion even before Pound changed from a money radical to a notorious anti-semite. By the time of his death in 1937 Kitson was the second most influential fascist in Britain the first being Oswald Mosely. In his late years he was brought to Germany to consult with Nazi party economists." - Wikipedia. "Kitson was a close friend of Henry Hamilton Beamish of the Britons and Arnold Leese of the Imperial Fascist League and was the chief source for their economic ideas." - British Fascism p.105. 460 pages.

1966443h6104Princeton: Princeton University Press. Good in Fair dust jacket. 1966. Third Printing. Hardcover. Signed and inscribed by Milton Friedman upon half-title. "Uses historical time series and economic analysis to argue the then-novel proposition that changes in the money supply profoundly influenced the U.S. economy especially the behavior of economic fluctuations. The implication drawn is that changes in the money supply had unintended adverse effects and that sound monetary policy is necessary for economic stability. Orthodox economic historians see this as one of the most influential economics books of the century. Friedman 1912-2006 won the 1976 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. Upon his death The Economist described him as 'the most influential economist of the second half of the twentieth century. possibly all of it.'" - Wikipedia. Third printing of the 1963 first edition.

He expanded these ideas into a book Labor and Other Capital in 1849. The present edition of 1861 was edited by Kellogg's daughter. "Kellogg's chief idea was that interest rates should be based not on the scarcity of credit but on the basic operating costs of banks. 'Kelloggism' had a great influence on such inflationary movements as the Greenback and the Populist." See ADAMS Radical Literature in America p.49 first edition. SABIN 37286.

First Edition, title slightly dusty,15, [1] pp., disbound. In 1841 the author patented his method of water softening ('Clark's process'). This removed what was called temporary hardness (hardness removable by boiling), which is due to the presence of calcium hydrogen carbonate (calcium bicarbonate). On boiling, this is converted to calcium carbonate which is deposited as scale or fur. Clark's method was to effect this precipitation by adding a calculated quantity of slaked lime, after first determining the degree of hardness. He published several works on this process, including A New Process for Purifying the Waters Supplied to the Metropolis (1841), and 'On the examination of water for towns, for its hardness, and for the incrustation it deposits on boiling' (Chemical Gazette). However, though the process was highly praised by Graham and others, it was several years before water companies made much use of it. Goldsmith, 32133.
