Business in the Age of Reason - Paperback

First Published in 1987. Representing a range of eighteenth-century research, these articles clarify or reorientate the historical origins of many of the chief themes of more recent business history. They include the areas of The Harburgh Company from 1716 to 1723; institutional experimentation in the London-Maryland Trade; banking in London in the 1700s; the pottery trade before 1780; the Birmingham Economy; Boulton and Wedgwood; financing the French navy; and directions of conduct in a merchant's counting house.
