Table of ContentsReviews"""a vast, rich archive that builds a foundation for both deeper investigation into particular texts or genres, as well as for a broader discussion of capitalism and culture."" - Peter J. Katz, California Northstate University, The Journal of Interdisciplinary History ""There are some indications that the vexed separation of economics and history is being bridged, or at least patched, by something new, loosely called “his>tories of economic life.” If so, Alborn is surely among the founding practitioners of that approach. With earlier books on corporate governance, life insurance, and the cultural power of gold, Alborn has ranged widely across the experience of economic life in eighteenth and nineteenth century Britain. Misers is another valuable contribution"" - Trevor Jackson, George Washington University, Eighteenth Century Studies" Author InformationTimothy Alborn is Professor of History at Lehman College and the City University of New York. He is the author of All That Glittered: Britain’s Most Precious Metal from Adam Smith to the Gold Rush (2019) and, previously, books on life insurance (2009) and corporate governance (1998).
