Counterfeiters flourished amid this anarchy, putting vast quantities of bogus bills into circulation. Their success, Mihm reveals, is more than an entertaining tale of criminal enterprise: it is the story of the rise of a country defined by freewheeling capitalism and little government control. Mihm shows how eventually the older monetary system was dismantled, along with the counterfeit economy it sustained. 001478601 538__ $$aMode of access: Internet via World Wide Web. 001478601 546__ $$aIn English. 001478601 5880_ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 08.
