Book Description
Wounded and trapped behind enemy lines, Major Lord Tyverne was rescued by Lieutenant George Croft, who subsequently died. Trying to repay the enormous debt he owed, Tyverne offered marriage to Delia Croft. Though her obnoxious cousin kept her on insufficient monies and George’s fiancé was devastatingly pregnant and abandoned by her family, and Diablo terrified everyone in sight, Delia insisted on love, not obligation.

Book Description
Now in paperback, the updated and expanded edition: David Graeber’s “fresh . . . fascinating . . . thought-provoking . . . and exceedingly timely” (Financial Times) history of debt Here anthropologist David Graeber presents a stunning reversal of conventional wisdom: he shows that before there was money, there was debt. For more than 5,000 years, since the beginnings of the first agrarian empires, humans have used elaborate credit systems to buy and sell goods—that is, long before the invention of coins or cash. It is in this era, Graeber argues, that we also first encounter a society divided into debtors and creditors. Graeber shows that arguments about debt and debt forgiveness have been at the center of political debates from Italy to China, as well as sparking innumerable insurrections. He also brilliantly demonstrates that the language of the ancient works of law and religion (words like “guilt,” “sin,” and “redemption”) derive in large part from ancient debates about debt, and shape even our most basic ideas of right and wrong. We are still fighting these battles today without knowing it.
