  • This study is an attempt to reconstruct the history of a medieval company on the basis of the extant fragments of its account books, the only surviving records. Despite the incompleteness of the data, it was possible to reach important conclusions and to show that the continued existence of a medieval firm depended on the same factors as today: coordination, efficient management, and effective control. The records also shed interesting light on personnel relations, adjustment to new trends, and the attitude of the merchants toward the Church.

  • The Augusta (Georgia) Manufacturing Company in Peace, War, and Reconstruction, 1847–1877

  • Richard W. Griffin
  • Journal:
    Business History Review / Volume 32 / Issue 1 / Spring 1958
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:

  • The potential advantages of the South over New England as a textile manufacturing region were recognized early in the nineteenth century, but it remained to be proved whether the disadvantages were insuperable. The success of a few mills like the Augusta Manufacturing Company provided the necessary precedent and inspiration, and precipitated the migration of an entire industry. The process of recording this episode is in itself of interest, for the pertinent company records have long since disappeared.

  • The Robber Baron Concept In American History

  • Hal Bridges
  • Journal:
    Business History Review / Volume 32 / Issue 1 / Spring 1958
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    24 July 2012, pp. 1-13
    Print publication:
    Spring 1958

  • The most vehement and persistent controversy in business history has been that waged by the critics and defenders of the “robber baron” concept of the American businessman. Far from being a pedantic exercise, this controversy has at various times exerted a decisive influence on business itself. The origins, spread, and obsolescence of the concept are traced here, together with the merits and failings of currently predominant historical attitudes.

  • Public Accounting in the United States from 1913 to 1928

  • James Don Edwards
  • Journal:
    Business History Review / Volume 32 / Issue 1 / Spring 1958
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    24 July 2012, pp. 74-101
    Print publication:
    Spring 1958

  • In the years between 1913 and 1928 public accounting evolved from a relatively obscure and limited practice to full maturity as a respected and flourishing profession. The present article deals with these years in some detail, expanding a shorter survey published in the Business History Review in June, 1956. The period from 1928 to 1951 is dealt with in detail in an article in the December, 1956, issue.
