This book is a collection of historical essays through the Massachusetts Historical Society about business in Boston in the 18th and 19th centuries. I read this book with my co-workers as a way of understanding the people who created many of the materials held in our archival repository. The collection is hit or miss with some essays being really insightful and others being really boring. Topics range from histories of women and Black people in business in Boston to the innovation of marine insurance, partnerships, and trusts in Boston.
