The papers in this set document the evolution of British central banking theory and techniques of credit control from the early report on the suspension of gold payments at the start of the French war in 1797 to the important policy reports on money lending issued in 1897 and 1898. The controversy between the currency and banking schools of thought appears in several volumes of this set and particularly in the famous report of 1810 on the High Price of Gold Bullion. The papers for the latter half of the century reflect the steadily increasing power and experience of British banking institutions.
