Michael E. Marotta provided this mini-review, with a promise of a more detailed look at the book later:
Whitman opens a new frontier with the presentation format of "Gold: Everything You Need to Know to Buy and Sell Today" by Jeff Garrett and Q. David Bowers (Foreword by Kenneth Bressett), 120 pages, $12.95. First of all, the page count is understated because the book includes ten pockets with tipped in ephemera, including (among very much else) a facsimile of Executive Order 6102.
The book is replete with charts, graphs, and tables of extracted data compiled for easy reference. Best of all, this is a book that is likely to decrease in value as the ephemera is damaged and lost.
Therefore, anyone who holds a pristine copy in 100 years will be hoarding a mint.
