  • The narrative was clear and interesting.

    The author clearly researched the subject and interviewed many people on the six years (1978 to 1984) covered by the book. The author seemed to understand the Federal Reserve Bank and was able to describe the flow of events clearly. He also showed causes and consequences for the nation as a whole.
