Description

Arguing that America's national security depends on its financial stability, a leading expert in the field of international finance draws on the lessons of American history to explain how leaders have held firm to financial principles developed by Alexander Hamilton to secure the nation and why current policies of borrowing to pay for the war in Iraq and short-sighted tax cuts threaten America's security.
