how money works
the ascent of money, 4-hour documentary
My last three books were Thermite, Kiribati, and Cretins . They were set in modern times, and they centered around fictional banking families: the Callypsos, Hydes, and Cobbs. Of course, fiction blends with reality, and I also include the Rothschilds and more.
My Western book, tentatively called Ferral, was going to trace the origins of these families in the United States. I also include robber baron industrialists such as the Rockefellers (real) and the Thurmans (fictional). Another central character in the Ferral project comes from the Miltons, a fictional family who dealt with exotic animals and cryptids.
The effects of money in our society has always fascinated me, and that's why I'm including the quote from Thomas Jefferson. I love to watch good documentaries, and some of the better ones take the form of cartoon humor. I'm including one here, and I'm including a great, great, great serious "history of money" one. It's four hours long, but it's worth every minute if you're into this type of thing.
