Commonwealth
A Study of the Role of Government in the American Economy: Massachusetts, 1774-1861
Oscar Handlin
Mary Flug Handlin
The Handlins have broken a path into an area of American economic history too long neglected. They have cleared out many misconceptions concerning corporate techniques, and they have given their readers a thesis which should be an inspiration for further investigation.
--Journal of Economic History
The authors have carried through a difficult task thoroughly and effectively. They have illuminated a hitherto dark corner of American economic history and have contributed significantly to our understanding of the development of life and society in Massachusetts.
--New England Quarterly
