***My favorite Pat Frank quote: “The day may come when a pound of tobacco is worth more than a pound of gold.”***
I remember when Kurt Saxon was on the Phil Donahue show. When asked about buying gold, she said that in a collapse of civilization gold will do you no good. Invest in sewing needles, he said.
But then, he was expecting a complete collapse back to the stone age.
Most of my books are of the old Fur-Fish Game types from the 1930s. Hunting, trapping, living off the land, ect.
“The day will come when the taxes on a pound of tobacco is more than the taxes on a pound of gold.”
