Descriere magazin:
Powell argues that Roosevelt\'s New Deal actually hampered the recovery of the American economy, prolonged and added to unemployment, and set the stage for ever more intrusive and costly government. Admirers of FDR credit his New Deal with restoring the American economy after the disastrous contraction of 1929--33. Truth to tell-as Powell demonstrates without a shadow of a doubt-the New Deal hampered recovery from the contraction, prolonged and added to unemployment, and set the stage for ever more intrusive and costly government. Powell\'s analysis is thoroughly documented, relying on an impressive variety of popular and academic literature both contemporary and historical. -Milton Friedman, Nobel Laureate, Hoover Institution There is a critical and often forgotten difference between disaster and tragedy. Disasters happen to us all, no matter what we do. Tragedies are brought upon ourselves by hubris. The Depression of the 1930s would have been a brief disaster if it hadn\'t been for the national tragedy of the New Deal. Jim Powell has proven this. -P.J.

Buchanan, Nobel Laureate, George Mason University I found Jim Powell\'s book fascinating. I think he has written an important story, one that definitely needs telling. -Thomas Fleming, author of The New Dealers\' War Jim Powell is one tough-minded historian, willing to let the chips fall where they may. That\'s a rare quality these days, hence more valuable than ever. He lets the history do the talking. -David Landes, Professor of History Emeritus, Harvard University Jim Powell draws together voluminous economic research on the effects of all of Roosevelt\'s major policies. Along the way, Powell gives fascinating thumbnail sketches of the major players. The result is a devastating indictment, compellingly told. Those who think that government intervention helped get the U.S. economy out of the depression should read this book. -David R. Henderson, editor of The Fortune Encyclopedia of Economics and author of The Joy of Freedom The Great Depression and the New Deal. For generati
