Loan Sharks: The Birth of Predatory Lending
Charles R. Geisst
Offers the first history of predatory lending in the United States. It traces the origins of modern consumer lending to such older practices as salary buying and hidden interest charges. Yet, as Geisst shows, no-holds-barred loan sharking is not a thing of the past. Many current lending practices employed today would have been easily recognizable at the end of the nineteenth century.
