At the kind invitation of Dave Birch, I will be giving the leadoff talk (“Currency 2.0”) at the Digital Money Forum in London on 31 March. In connection with that event, I inquired at the Institute of Economic Affairs, publishers of the 2nd edition of my Free Banking in Britain, whether they might not like to unload some of their unsold book stock at the Forum. Turns out they didn’t have any. Now they’ve heroically made the title available again, not only as hard copy for £10 through print-on-demand, but also as a free PDF download (13.55MB). Details and download access here.

ADDENDUM: Adam Myers, Director of Marketing at the IEA, informs me that the print version is available in bulk for classroom use at £4 per copy. Bargain!
