Originally published in 1939, this book examined how to finance the war, including chapters on the methods of industrial mobilisation and government borrowing and the growth of money income. During the course of the year 1936, when the probability of another war with Germany became exceedingly great, a group of six persons interested in the problems of financial policy began to meet, and the results of the discussions that took place between them are embodied in the present work.

"Why have the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq lasted longer than any others in American history? One view is that the move to an all-volunteer force and drones have allowed the wars to continue almost unnoticed for years. Taxing Wars suggests how Americans bear the burden in treasure has also changed, with recent wars financed by debt rather than taxes. This shift has eroded accountability and contributed to the phenomenon of perpetual war"--

Excerpt from War Borrowing: A Study of Treasury Certificates of Indebtedness of the United States This essay traces back to a running comment upon the actual course of our war financing made day after day to the bare handful of students into which the Economic Seminary of the Johns Hop kins University had in the early months of the nation's entry into the great struggle swiftly re solved itself. Any worth that the study may possess is thus, in the first instance, to be shared with this little group since, to a man, drawn into the country's service. It 1s never easy to write critically of current fiscal practices, least of all when the nation's existence hangs in the balance. Many facts are uncollected, much material may not be made accessible, and from first to last the writer is held and tied by his wish to help and not hurt. Yet if his inquiry is to serve any present use, the student cannot wait until present policies have become historic records. With the certainty of some incompleteness, at the risk of unfortunate oversight or avoidable error, he will offer that which he has rather than await the comfortable detail of the full event.
