This book, which tells the adventures of a girl named Dorothy Gale in the land of Oz, is one of the best known stories of American popular culture and has been translated into many languages. Thanks to the great success of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum wrote thirteen more books about the land of Oz. According to Krugman and Obstfeld based on Rockoff H. the story is a direct allegory of the political and economic struggle between supporters of the gold standard and those of bimetallism in the United States at the end of the 19th century. The yellow brick road is the false promise of gold, Kansas the indebted agricultural state, the silver shoes the way back home, and Oz, the measure of gold weight (oz. = Ounce).
