A Liverpool Merchant House
This volume focuses on the history of the Alfred Booth and Company in Liverpool from 1863 to 1958. Originally published in 1959, this is an account of a family business, written primarily for those who are, or have been, associated with it; but written also in the hope that it may be found of some value by those who are interested in the history of English economic development during the nineteenth century.

Business in the Age of Depression and War
First Published in 1990. This is the companion title to R.P.T. Davenport-Hines', Capital, Entrepreneurs and Profits. This title responds to the little discussion surrounding the subject of business history. The editor recognised that although the interpretation of business history has been wide, the only distinguishing features was a dependence on, often British, business records which is reflected in the selection of volumes within this collection. This title intends to present a list of searching and analytical, and therefore more satisfying and instructive, histories of British companies from which lessons can be learned.
Information, Mediation, and Institutional Development
This text explores the patterns of corporate growth, organizational change, and entrepreneurial succession within Britain's shipping industry between 1870 and 1914 when the industry dominated the trade routes of the world. It analyzes how one of Britain's major service industries retained its international competitiveness at a time when many of the older staple sectors lost their comparative advantages and when numerous firms in the new industries failed to develop strong capabilities.
