About this book
Calvin Elliott argues in thirty-nine chapters that taking interest on loans is wrong. He starts with a definition of the term, then reads the Law of Moses, the prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel, Nehemiah's reform and the teachings of Jesus, before turning to church history and Calvin's letter on usury. Later chapters describe what he sees as its effects on the poor and on the concentration of wealth, and three answer Christian apologists, land rentals and political economists. The Anti-Usury League of Millersburg, Ohio, issued it in 1902.
