Summary: "In this first-of-its-kind treatment, Heinz Tschachler offers an account of Edgar Allan Poe's relation to the world of banking and money in antebellum America. His censure is overt in his early satires and almost an undercurrent in writings that enter into and historicize the discovery of gold in California"-- Provided by publisher
