Birch, Lionel - The Waggoner on the Footplate - Cambridge, W. Heffer & Sons, 1933, 142pp. VERY SCARCE pro-Social Credit thesis, the author claims that with the correcting of the economic system poverty could be abolished within a year, if enough people were sufficiently interested!!!! "Not one man in a thousand can be aroused to an interest in economics until he definitely suffers from the effects of an evil system." - Ezra Pound (quoted by Lionel Birch in The Waggoner on the Footplate, 1933) The world in general, and Englishmen in particular, are still tied to the hypothesis of the Age of Scarcity. What seems to be needed for every adult Englishman and woman is an hour a day's compulsory meditation on the idea of Plenty." -Lionel Birch in The Waggoner on the Footplate, 1933. Very good copy in VG attractive pictorial dust wrapper. Review copy slip laid in with pencil notes |
