Excerpt from Money, Banking, and Finance

Excellent books on the best methods of bank bookkeeping already exist, also other books on the theories and history of money and banking. In a well-organized course on banking this book should fill an intermediate place between those described; it is the pioneer of its kind.

It is designed especially for three classes of students, or readers: those who intend to devote themselves to the business of banking; those who are thus engaged; and those who are studying the history and theories of banking.

To those who have already studied the theories of money in works on political economy or in special treatises on the subject, the first chapter may not be deemed needful. Yet even to such it may serve as a brief, useful review. To those who have not had such an introduction, a presentation of the leading principles of money is needful for a deep and broad comprehension of the duties of sound, conservative banking. This remark applies with especial force to the younger men in our banking institutions who have never read any treatise on political economy or money.

The chapters on finance are added because many of our modern banks and trust companies, and especially private hankers, undertake to finance private enterprises, and to some extent even public ones.
