Edwardian Drunkards Jibber Jabber

Posted on March 29, 2010 by stacyherbert| 39 Comments

I’m also re-reading Empire of Debt; it’s a soothing read in a way because it makes a very good case for our current situation (though written just before the financial collapse) as just the inevitable story of empire.
