Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Subtitled, "A New History Of The Great Depression". From one of America's most respected economic commentators comes a fresh new interpretation of a crucial yet widely misunderstood moment in American history - the Great Depression.

Publisher's description:

Offers a reinterpretation of the Great Depression. This title shows how both Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt failed to understand the prosperity of the 1920s and heaped burdens on the country that more than offset the benefit of New Deal programs. It traces the agony of the New Dealers themselves.
