Reseña del libro "A Financial History of Tennessee Since 1870 (en Inglés)"
A Financial History of Tennessee Since 1870 is a comprehensive account of the economic development and financial progress of the state of Tennessee over the last 150 years. The book, authored by James E. Thorogood, delves into the various economic factors that have shaped the state's financial landscape, including agriculture, industry, and government policies. The book begins by examining the post-Civil War era, when Tennessee experienced significant growth in its agricultural sector, particularly in cotton production. It then moves on to the early 20th century, when the state began to diversify its economy, with the growth of industries such as coal mining, timber, and manufacturing. Thorogood also discusses the impact of the Great Depression on Tennessee, as well as the state's role in World War II and the subsequent post-war economic boom. He then examines the various economic challenges faced by the state in the latter half of the 20th century, such as the decline of the manufacturing sector and the rise of service-based industries. Throughout the book, Thorogood analyzes the role of government policies in shaping Tennessee's financial history, including the impact of federal programs such as the New Deal and the Great Society. He also explores the state's tax policies and their impact on economic growth and development. Overall, A Financial History of Tennessee Since 1870 provides a detailed and insightful look into the economic history of one of America's most important states. It is a valuable resource for historians, economists, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the forces that have shaped Tennessee's financial landscape over the last century and a half.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
