“This book provides a definitive treatment of the U.S balance of payments 1790–1919. … The book is a major contribution to U. S economic history. … the book is a monumental effort and its mastery of disparate sources puts it on a par with classics such as Lebergott (1964). It will surely stimulate further research.” (John Devereux, EH Net, eh.net, May, 2022)
