• Baja's Ballena Bliss

SAN IGNACIO LAGOON, Mexico - If gray whales held grudges, fewer people would travel the 35-mile-long rutted, washboard road that links San Ignacio with its namesake lagoon on the Pacific coast of Mexico's Baja peninsula. But the ballenas, or whales, that winter at San Ignacio and two other Pacific lagoons are notoriously friendly toward the people who watch them from the small fishing boats (or pangas) that cruise the bays between January and April.

• The Birth of Joint-Stock Banking: England and New England Compared

By the end of the nineteenth century, the banking systems of England and New England were very different. 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.
