From Baird Maritime:
Only the amazing Naval Institute Press could produce and effectively promote an apparently obscure but actually vitally important book such as this.
Going well beyond conventional wisdom as to the causes of the War in the Pacific, this book shows that money was actually at the heart of the matter. It provides a stark lesson to other recalcitrant regimes that they should not keep all their eggs in the one currency basket. Something some of America's Gulf state friends and enemies have finally awakened to.
It is a complex story but one that has been very clearly told. All governments can learn from it. Some fortunately have.
A very thought provoking book.
