It was an economy marked, among other things, by the evolution of central banks, the gold standard, the dominant financial position of the London money market, a belief in the sanctity of contracts, expanding markets for both raw materials and manufactured goods, opportunities for large profits, and private business concerns whose credit was often higher than that of the governments to which they owed allegiance. This economic system was also subject to business cycles, periodic unemployment, and fluctuating prices; but these aspects of its operations seem not to have affected men's thinking at the time in so influential a manner as has subsequently been the case. Among the business characters that both contributed to and profited from this stimulating environment was the merchant banker or, as he subsequently became, the investment banker and international financier. Dr. Hidy has taken as a subject for study the history of the Barings, one of the most illustrious of the international banking families, during the period 1763-1861, the century that elapsed between the Seven Years' War and the American Civil War. During a considerable part of this period the Barings were recognized in London as the chief of the \"American houses,\" and it is entirely proper that Dr. Hidy's attention should be focused chiefly on the American business of the Barings, more especially since his main source of information was the Baring Papers in the Canadian Public Archives. Basically the approach employed by Dr. Hidy is that of a chronological account of a very large number of financing operations undertaken by the Barings.

Lovett","doi":"10.1017/S0007680500024260","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1017/S0007680500024260","url":null,"abstract":"A familiar figure on the roads of the Middle West during the second half of the last century was the lightning-rod salesman with his wagon. In an area frequently visited by thunder storms, there was a ready market for the latest adaptation of Franklin's protective device. Even in frontier towns, new buildings were not long unequipped with rods, their points tipped with platinum and perhaps ornamented with glass balls. The preservation of two record books, a ledger, and a few letters enables us to tell the story (or at least part of it) of the firm largely responsible for the widespread acceptance of this method of protection against lightning. Cole Brothers, of Mount Pleasant in southeastern Iowa, was a family company, but the fact that its owners were four brothers does not mean that the minutes of their meetings are any less frank or complete. One must only regret that the surviving volumes start after the business had been under way for some time and stop many years before the firm disbanded. However, the story of the intervening years in the life of the company reveals not only steady growth, despite temporary setbacks, but also the interplay of personalities. An enterprise responsible for a product in common use by our ancestors (one which shows signs of returning popularity) is for a moment illumined.","PeriodicalId":359130,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of the Business Historical Society","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1950-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128558275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
