An Illustrated Guide to the American Economy
By Herbert Stein and Murray Foss

Review excerpts:

Much of the inspiration for this report came from An Illustrated Guide to the American Economy, by economists Herbert Stein and Murray Foss, a surprisingly readable 245 pages, published for the American Enterprise Institute (The AEI Press, Washington, D.C.); we recommend it, highly. Stein and Foss challenge old notions and provide new insight on America's historical progress.
