Description

In this detailed economic history, Professor John G. Clark explores the ever-expanding commercial world of New Orleans and the Louisiana colony during their first century of development. In 1718, the new settlementi1/2s location on the Mississippi River bank, allowed New Orleans to develop into a major port, and consequently to gain significant economic power. During the formative years, however, both New Orleans and the colony of Louisiana were on the brink of economic disaster due to a lack of assistance from France. Despite insufficient money and supplies, gains such as the establishment of plantations and the development of trade systems were made nevertheless. Under Spanish rule, New Orleans emerged as a major port and assumed a more urban identity. Because Spain allowed Louisiana to operate outside of the colonial system, English and American commerce began to flourish in New Orleans. This contributed greatly to the cityi1/2s economic progress between 1765 and 1803. When Louisiana was transferred to the United States, New Orleans, then free of colonial economic restrictions, was soon integrated into the world's largest free trade area. New capitalist enterprises such as banks and insurance companies began to emerge, and additional avenues of economic expansion opened up for the port city. In this volume, Clark gives a truly comprehensive account of New Orleansi1/2 first century of economic history.
