I've put this under the category of "economics" but could just as relevantly put it under "politics" or "bottom feeders".

Why? Because "bottom feeders" is a good description of those who deliberately push the myths of the Great Depression - "Hoover believed in laissez-faire" "It was a failure of the free market and FDR saved the day" etc. And "politics" because well it is a synonym for "bottom feeders".

It isn't just dry economic analysis but includes some great quotes from people like HL Mencken.

Here is a link to one of the best books (free pdf download) on the myths of the Great Depression.

And here is a link to a page that has the whole thing as an audio book.

It is written by Lawrence W. Reed who is now with FEE
