A History of Central Banking in Great Britain and the United States - Studies in Macroeconomic History
Wood, John H. (Wake Forest University, North Carolina)
This 2005 book shows that important continuities in central bankers' behavior - response to incentives, desire for financial stability, and susceptibility to government pressures - go a long way toward understanding them, from their beginnings in the Bank of England in 1694 and the first Bank of the United States in 1791, to the present Bank and Federal Reserve.
