We generally acknowledge that the United States - a nation based on individual freedom, natural rights, the rule of law, separation of church and state and popular sovereignty - was founded on three great documents: The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

It was called the Magna Carta - the "Great Charter" - and arguably no other document was more important to the development of English common law and ultimately our Constitution and Bill of Rights.

England possessed a small number of large-scale clearing banks that had established extensive branch networks and dominated the domestic market. In contrast, New England banking was characterized by a large number of small-scale institutions. Yet, a century earlier, there were striking similarities between the two systems. An analysis of their evolution over the course of the nineteenth century provides an international and comparative perspective on the continuing debate over banking institutions, lending patterns, and economic growth.
