Raw Materials Economics
This is a primer that makes clear that the only economics that count must square well with the observed facts. Those facts say that values placed on raw materials as they enter the economic cycle govern the earned income of any economy. Raw Materials Economics is a codification of NORM (National Organization for Raw Materials) thinking. Charts, tables and a special summary by the late Vince Rossiter make Raw Materials Economics a history of the past and a blue print for the future. If you’ve wanted to gain a better understanding of raw materials economics, this book is a great way to begin.

United StatesImportant & Useful
Having followed Charles Walters, Jr. and his writings for 40 years, I would say that his book on Raw Materials was the best one he ever wrote. Thought provoking, but even if the economic theory is considered deficient, it is impossible to understand American history from 1880 to 1950 without it. Various agrarian groups believed it. I talked to him on the phone about it 14 years ago while I was running for political office; one of the most enlightening 20 minute conversations of my life. Thank you for continuing to make this book available.
United StatesDon't bother with this one!
Love ACRES titles - but this one is a useless read! Seems to be a bunch of outdated info, absolutely swamped in useless charts and figures. Can't really know, wouldn't give it the time to actually finish it. Please stop offering this book!
