Ben Bernankes Gets Historical

This is kind of cool, I guess Ben Bernanke is giving a series of speeches on the history of the Federal Reserve, starting with the history of the gold standard. This is an area I have studied before; the lessons of the gold standard have particular relevence to the eurozone crisis today because of the parallels between fixed-exchange rate systems. More on this later.
