""An Essay On Value: With A Short Account Of American Currency"" is a book written by John Borden in 1897. The book is a detailed analysis of the concept of value and its relationship with the American currency system.

The first part deals with the concept of value and its different interpretations. Borden examines the theories of value proposed by classical economists such as Adam Smith and David Ricardo, and compares them with the theories of modern economists such as John Stuart Mill and Karl Marx. He also discusses the concept of subjective value, which he believes is a more accurate way of determining value.The second part of the book deals with the American currency system. Borden provides a brief history of American currency, from the colonial period to the present day. He examines the various types of currency that have been used in the United States, including gold and silver coins, paper money, and bank notes. He also discusses the role of the Federal Reserve System in controlling the money supply and maintaining the stability of the currency.Overall, ""An Essay On Value: With A Short Account Of American Currency"" is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the concept of value and its relationship with the American currency system.
