AMERICAN HISTORY AS SEEN THROUGH CURRENCY
by Joanne and Edward Dauer
A Pictorial History of Some of the Rarest U.S. Money Ever Seen

Dr. Edward and Joanne Dauer’s book takes us, like a time machine, through the history of America as we ride their magic carpet of U.S. currency. Never before has a book been published illustrating in full color rare U.S. currency plus historical documents written by some of America’s most famous people.
It is truly refreshing to be taken back in time by a book, to revisit the world’s greatest historical events. Now, for the first time, we view these events through some of the most beautiful and rarest U.S. currency ever printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.
See some of the most beautiful reproductions in full color of rare U.S. money. The Grand “Watermelon” note is one of only three by type that exist in private collections and is extremely rare. Read about the generals that are illustrated on the currency.
See rare reproductions of documents from historys famous people including items from the Titanic that were written and sent by some of the victims of the disaster including a postcard and letter mailed from the ship.
When you remove the glossy full color dust jacket, what is revealed is an elegant case bound cover in imitation dark brown leather. Gold embossed artwork decorates the front of the book which is repeated on the spine. The cover has the look and feel of a fine historical publication that is usually only found in museums and ancient libraries.
