How to Pay for the War: A Radical Plan for the Chancellor of the Exchequer

John Maynard Keynes

Published by Macmillan, London, 1940 and printed by Purnell and Sons

First Edition No ISBN Limited

The title of the book says what it does: how can Britain pay for a war against Germany, a country larger than Britain with double the population at the time? Keynes sets forth his ideas to establish full employment, price and wage controls and other macroeconomic approaches to subsidise the war effort.
