Description
First Published in 1990. This volume starts with an introduction to the first works on business history since 1924 looking at the work of Francis Hyde in Liverpool and Harvard. This is a collection of articles reprinted from the first 25 year of the journal 'Business History' which was bi-annually available until in 1981 when it increased to three issues. The contributions demonstrate that the interpretation of business history has been very wide, falling into the area of economic history.
