Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paying for a World War: The United States Financing of World War II The Treasury's war finance operations were the product of experience reaching back to the American Revolution, during which the earliest attempts were made to sell government securities to the public. Not until the Liberty Loan and War Savings campaigns of World War I, however, was any program developed likely to achieve the goal which the Secretary of the Treasury had in mind at the outset of World War II.
