The Manhattan Company: Managing a Multi-Unit Corporation in New York, 1799-1842 - Routledge Library Editions: History of Money, Banking and Finance 1st edition

This reissue from 1989 is a valuable addition to the literature on the study of American business history. Most historians study the management of business in a vacuum, separating the internal affairs of companies from their social and political environments. This traces the history of banking in New York within its social situation.
