Capital of Capital

Money, Banking, and Power in New York City

By: Steven H. Jaffe,Jessica Lautin,Museum of the City of New York

From Revolutionary-era bank notes and stock and bond trading during the Civil War to the invention of modern mortgages and the 2008 financial collapse, Capital of Capital explores how New York City gave rise to a banking industry that in turn made the American and worldÕs economy. In addition to exploring the frequently contentious evolution of the banking industry, the book examines the role of banks in making New York City an international economic center and its influence on AmericaÕs economy, politics, society, and culture. Based on a major exhibit at the Museum of the City of New York, Capital of Capital profiles the key leaders and critics of banking, such as Alexander Hamilton, the Rockefellers, and the Occupy Wall Street protesters. The book also covers the key events and controversies that have shaped the history of banking and includes a fascinating array of primary materials ranging from speeches and political documents to advertisements and journalistic accounts. 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 worldÕs economy.

Rites of Spring

By: Jessica Duchen

Paralysed by grief and guilt after his mother's death, Adam turns down a promotion to art director of an upscale men's magazine. His wife Sasha has just turned 40 and thinks that her unemployed, depressed, lying around the house smoking dope husband just doesn't fancy her any more. They are both too absorbed in themselves, their own problems and the logistics of running a household that contains two eight-year-old boys, to notice that thirteen-year-old Liffy is teetering on the verge of anorexia. And then she falls in. Liffy's aunt, Lisa, knows something is wrong, but is distracted by her work as a lecturer in music and her rollercoaster affair with a Russian pianist. Will someone see what's happening to Liffy before it's too late?
