Product Description
Overstone, a major figure in the "Currency School," was a principal architect of the Bank Act of 1844 whose provisions he defended in the Parliamentary hearings of 1848 and 1857. This important primary source of Overstone's monetary thought, including previously unpublished material, demonstrates his equal mastery of banking theory and practice. "Overstone's emphasis was on control of currency as the high-powered money base, with deposits as part of an inverted credit pyramid." The New Palgrave ... Read more

That there hag lately been apparent throughout the commercial nnd manufacturing community of this country an extent of monetary pressure, such as is without precedent in the memory of the oldest living merchant.The petitioners commence their prayer with a statement contrary to fact. The panic of 1825, the innumerable failures of provincial bankers under the former law, and the threatened insolvency of the Bank of England in 1839, are unconsciously or conveniently overlooked, when they venture to affirm that the extent of the recent monetary pressure is without an example in the memory of the oldest living merchant. It is not very easy to fix upon any positive standard of the extent or severity of monetary pressure. That which is present is naturally overrated, in comparison with that which is past and comparatively forgotten. The rate of interest allowed by brokers upon money held at call may be token as a fair test of theextent of monetary pressure. The rate allowed by them on the present occasion, to which the petition refers, has not exceeded 4i per cent. The same rate (4£ per cent.) was allowed by them in 1H36; and in the monetary pressure of 1839, the rate allowed by them rose to 5 per cent. Again, it is surely very exraordinary, that during a state of monetary pressure, the... ... Read more

Product Description
This pocket-size chess book will keep you busy and excited for awhile. Every book of this series contains 100 masterpieces from the golden treasury of chess lore, that are distinguished by bright, elegant, but not too complicated solution. Therefore almost all these studies are, besides all, fine learning examples. They can be solved directly from the diagrams, without chess board and pieces.

An outstanding improviser
Samuel Loyd(1841 - 1911) was the founder of themodern thematic chess problem.His extraordinary talent came to light very early. Already in 1856, a year after he begancomposing, Loyd astonished the chess world with numerous thematic discoveries involvingdoubling, regrouping and interference of pieces, line vacation and unstalemating of the blackking.Irrespective of the genre Loyd's problems are characterized by difficult introductory play,clever and original combinations and as a rule light construction.He was an inexhaustible inventor. Many of his problems were published under mottoes(often humorous) accompanied by witty commentaries or providing a basis for an entire literarywork. Loyd introduced such forms as twins, graphic compositions, and retro-analysisproblems. He presented his selected works in the book "Chess Strategy" (USA, 1878),where he explained his views on the art of problem composition.Loyd edited columns on chess composition in various American magazines, and he was a prominent organizer ofchess life in the USA in the late 19th century.

4-0 out of 5 stars The solution should not be printed below the diagram.
For Sam Lyod, the chess puzzle king, there is no need to comment. But one thing annoys me is that the solution is printed under each puzzle diagram,so one either set up the problems using a chess sets, or have to cover the solution hoping not to see the answers unintentionally. This would make the reader very inconvient!!I don't understand how such obvious thing the publihser should miss!! ... Read more
