This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1917. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... HARVARD UNIVERSITY LIBRARY V _ Copyrighted by Charles A. Lindbergh 1917 NATIONAL CAPITAL PRESS, INC., WASHINGTON, D To Readers: Materially connected with the conditions as they exist now, is my book bearing the title, "Banking and Currency and The Money Trust," published 1913, in which is the following prefatory statement: The market prices of commodities vary from day to day and often'several times a day. This occurs when there is no radical difference in the pro-portion of supply and the natural demands. This fact is conclusive proof that our system is controlled by manipulators and is fundamentally wrong. I have sought to elucidate this problem within this volume and have suggested a plan which, if adopted, would make the people themselves master of the world, instead of the present master--The Money Trust. What I predicted in the book above referred to is now taking place. The "press" controlled by "big business" at the time of the publication of that book, attacked me savagely for predicting dire results from the "big business" system. We now have what I then said we would have. I make no claim to magic knowledge. On the contrary, any attempt to say what the future will bring, I maintain would be a folly unless it is based upon facts that inevitably lead to certain things. There are facts that do that, and it is upon such facts that I published that book, and now again publish this new book, widening the scope of consideration by taking additional subjects. The former book is cloth bound, has 318 pages, and will be sent to an address postage prepaid for $1.00. Its contents are as important now as when written, and immensely more interesting because of the subsequent developments. Charles A. Lindbergh, P. O. Address, either ...

The America First committee is well known and so is Charles Linbergh jr's involvement is it. But the spirit of it, and even the name can be found in hist Fathers writings;

"If you are really for America first and Last and all of the time and, solely for America and for the Masses Primarily then you are classified as pro-German by the big press which are supported by the speculators

In fact the lived parallel lives in many ways. Charles Lindbergh the Sr. was slander, hung in effigy and even put in jail when he tried to run as senator after writing this and some other works about the Oligarch and the Federal reserve. Certainly, this could not be seen as a fair fight as Lindbergh explains in his book the other side has basically infinite resources through the federal reserve, and not even a man who was learned and brave as Charles Lindbergh Sr. certainly was could overcome that.

On recommendations, this is really the best introduction to "red pill" yourself or others on the economic system we live under. For someone who isn't deep into some serious rabbit holes and used to the slander of figures in the alternative media, Lindbergh comes off as intelligent and non controversial. I highly recommend this for someone who is interested in the oligarchs of America or someone who question the narrative of why the USA entered WW1

this book was burned by higher powers to conceal the nature of the central banks before its widespread release. it reveals mechanisms of power in the US that are not always readily apparent to its citizens.

recommend highly.
