A British Firm on the American West Coast, 1869–1914*

Morton Rothstein

Business History Review, 1963, vol. 37, issue 4, 392-415

Abstract: The success of Balfour, Guthrie and Company in mobilizing British and American capital for productive investment contributed importantly to the economic development of the Pacific-coast region of the United States. The changing economic patterns of that region emerge through Professor Rothstein's analysis of the firm and its managers' actions and responses, from which a broader understanding of the problems and direction of foreign investment in the American West is possible.
