Why Gold? was the first of three books written by Leslie Snyder Bates. She says she wrote Why Gold? 50 years ago to help dispel the ignorance about the nature of money, inflation, and tyranny, but economic ignorance is still widespread. Why Gold? is more relevant today than ever before as the country’s economic crisis worsens while Congress (with the Federal Reserve) passes increasingly detrimental legislation. Leslie Bates’ deep love for her country has prompted her to re-write Why Gold? in support of those individuals and organizations that are strenuously working to return the United States back to its Constitutional moral, economic and political foundation and heritage.
Mrs. Bates has raised two sons and currently resides with her husband near St. George, Utah.
