I have been planning to make a story regarding our relationship with gold and how it may be unhealthy. In order to prepare for it I wanna know what books could be useful for that? Books about the history of gold. The psychology of it. Or maybe even a book about the science behind it. Whatever it can be, it can even be a book similar to the story I want to write. Hope all the suggestions will be golden.

“books about gold history” Google it
McTeague by Frank Norris is the first thing that comes to mind.
The Chinese Question: The Gold Rushes and Global Politics by Mae Ngai is all about the role Chinese immigrants played in the gold rush + how it factors into our relationship to gold/money and global politics! Not sure if that’s too far outside your scope though
