Money, Banking, and Power in New York City, 1784-2012  

Steven H. Jaffe and Jessica Lautin 

Capital of Capital examines the frequently contentious evolution of the banking business, its role in making New York City an international economic center, and its influence on America's politics, society, and culture.

Capital of Capital features the key leaders of banking as well as its critics. The authors also cover the major events and controversies that have shaped the history of banking and include a fascinating array of primary materials. Lavishly illustrated, Capital of Capital provides a multifaceted, original understanding of the profound impact of banking on the life of New York City and the world's economy.

The African American Literary and Cultural Left of the 1950s

Mary Helen Washington 

 

Mary Helen Washington recovers the vital role of 1950s leftist politics in the works and lives of modern African American writers and artists. While most histories of McCarthyism focus on the devastation of the blacklist and the intersection of leftist politics and American culture, few include the activities of radical writers and artists from the Black Popular Front. Washington's work incorporates these black intellectuals back into our understanding of mid-twentieth-century African American literature and art and expands our understanding of the creative ferment energizing all of America during this period.
