This work publishes for the first time Richard T. Ely's study of the history of American economic thought. Ely was both a reformer of economics and a leading economist between the 1880's and 1930's. A founder of the American economic association, he himself wrote on a vast number of topics. This history of American economics tells a story that is both straightforward and his own interpretation.

Then follows the body of Ely's draft: twelve chapters and two appendices. ...Appendix 1 deals with collateral subjects, mostly American economists whose work Ely regards as less important. Appendix 2 updates the entire field with Ely's insightful treatment of contemporary (1931) American economics. Journal of Economic Issues
