Sovereign Soldiers
AMERICAN BUSINESS,
POLITICS, AND SOCIETY
Series editors:
Andrew Wender Cohen, Pamela Walker Laird,
Mark H. Rose, and Elizabeth Tandy Shermer
Books in the series American Business, Politics, and Society explore the relationships over time between governmental institutions and the creation and performance of markets, firms, and industries, large and small. The central theme of this series is that politics, law, and public policy—understood broadly to embrace not only lawmaking, but also the structuring presence of governmental institutions—has been fundamental to the evolution of American business from the colonial era to the present. The series aims to explore, in particular, developments that have enduring consequences.
