It is believed that the facts adduced in the following pages [of this book] will be productive of some good, in pointing out the immense evils lurking in that system of banking, a system which has produced panics at will, and which is the active abettor of the stock gamblers, railroad wreckers, and those industrial tyrants of modern times, the enormously overcapitalized and oppressive trusts.

It is sought to point out the great dangers of delegating purely government powers to these greedy monopolists, by which they are enabled to organize a money trust, far more tyrannical than all the other combinations now in existence; and by which they absolutely defy the authority that endowed them with corporate life.

The issue between these banks and the people will be joined in the near future, and the greatest struggle the world ever witnessed will take place between the usurping banks on the one hand and the people on the other ....

First published in 1899, a history of the National Bank System of currency, including an account of the first U.S. Bank. This book documents from Congressional records, newspaper reports and writings by the founding fathers and others a chronology of events long forgotten that shaped our fledgling nation from 1776 to 1899. Read about the manipulation of our money and its supply, the intentional creation of recessions, depressions and panics. The manipulation of the stock markets and demonetization of silver.

Now, read for the first time in almost a century, the book that documents how and why our national debt was deliberately created by our elected representatives and the banking money power. The Coming Battle, originally published by M.W. Walbert in 1899, is the chronological history of the usurping of every American's sovereign rights by the unseen money powers and their agents.

• how recessions, depressions, and panics are created at will and how the stock markets are manipulated for power and gain.
• how the manufacturers, with the backing of the money power, import cheap foreign labor, resulting in countless labor riots.
• how the money power took control of the influential colleges and universities in the United States.
• how the money power created starvation and suffering in a nation of plenty and how small family farms are set up for foreclosures.
• how silver was demonetized by the money power, resulting in a five -year depression, that devastated the people and the western regions of the United States.
• how the banking money power fleeced the treasury of our gold and silver and replaced it with their worthless paper money.
• how legislation was signed and passed into law pledging every American citizen as collateral for the repayment of all government debts in gold and silver.

Told in breathtaking detail with proof-positive evidence taken from Congressional records, newspaper reports, writings of the day, and statements by our Founding Fathers. You will not likely read about this in any other history book.
