ANTONY C. SUTTON

“At the end of World War II, the United States


was in a unique and seemingly unassailable
monetary position. The world’s largest gold stock
was secure in the vaults of Fort Knox and the
Federal Reserve banks. The American dollar was
everywhere in short supply, facing 'an apparently
insatiable demand. American technology and the
standard of living it made possible were the envy of
the world.
“Three decades later the United States is wracked
by internal political and moral problems, inflation,
and self doubts. The world's most powerful nation
had been defeated by a third-rate country in a
wasteful no—win war. Half of its gold stock had been
lost, and it had short-term liabilities to foreigners
totalling almost ten times the value of what gold it
still owned.
“What happened, and why?"
The answer to that question is the subject of An—
tony C. Sutton’s most recent and perhaps most im-
portant book, The War on Gold. It is a definitive
study of the past, present, and future of the metal
that Keynesian economists and political schemers
have denounced as a “barbarous relic."
The war on gold began several centuries ago,
when politicians discovered they could print limit—
less amounts of paper currency for a small fraction
of the cost of using gold as money. It has accelerated
in recent years, as the United States acquired a
paper debt of a trillion—plus dollars, massive federal
deficits led to double-digit inflation, and inter-
nationalists plotted to create a new world order.
Professor Sutton’s forecasts for the future are
bleak, if the causes for our decline are not under-
stood and steps taken quickly to correct them. But
he is a realist, not a defeatist. "There is still time to
restore integrity to our monetary policies and sanity
to our foreign policies," he observes. The reasons
for the impending collapse, and the only course of
action that will avoid it, are the subject of this book.
ANTONY Ci SUTTON was born in London in
1925 and educated at the universities of London,
Gottingen, and California. A citizen of the United
States since 1962, he was a Research Fellow atthe
Hoover Institution for War, Revolution and Peace
from 1968 to 1973. While at Hoover, he produced
the monumental three-volume series on Western
Technology and Soviet Economic Development.
Other books by Professor Sutton include National
Suicide: Military Aid to the Soviet Union, Wall
Street and the Bolshevik Revolution, Wall Street
and FDR, and Wall Street and the Rise of Hitler. He
has contributed articles to Human Events, The
Review of the News, Triumph, Ordnance, and
many other journals. The War on Gold is the first
volume in a two-part study by Professor Sutton of
the Federal Reserve System and the manipulation of
our monetary system. The second book, The Paper
Factory, will be published in 1978.
