SUMMARY:Friends of the Library - James Bevill discusses "The Paper Republic"
DESCRIPTION:
 Jim Bevill is the author of "The Paper Republic: 
 The Struggle for Money, Credit and Independence 
 in the Republic of Texas." \n
 \n
 From the 
 publisher, posted at Amazon: "Offering a new 
 take on the stirring story of the Texas Revolution, 
 this history focuses on the financial 
 underpinnings and monetary issues that factored 
 into the struggle. Deftly weaving numismatics 
 and history into an engaging and highly 
 entertaining narrative, the story unveils a verifiable 
 trail of many of the most significant 
 people and events surrounding the struggle 
 for independence in Texas. It is replete with 
 colorful anecdotes about visionary kings, obsessive 
 dictators, crooked politicians, and 
 counterfeiters, and includes a detailed history 
 of each piece of coin and currency used in 
 the old Republic." \n
