Bank Notes and Shinplasters: The Rage for Paper Money in the Early Republic - American Business, Politics, and Society
Joshua R. Greenberg
In Bank Notes and Shinplasters, Joshua R. Greenberg shows how Americans accumulated and wielded monetary information in order to navigate the early republic's chaotic bank note system. He demonstrates that the shift to federally authorized paper money in the Civil War era eliminated the public's need for detailed financial knowledge.
