Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lectures on Commerce, Vol. 1: Delivered Before the College of Commerce and Administration of the University of Chicago
The University of Chicago has been especially favored in this respect. Situated in so great a com mercial center, it has been able to invite men eminent in their callings. The response which has been received is shown by this volume of lectures, and the College of Commerce and. Administration again expresses its gratitude to those who have so generously contributed their time to the common work of commercial educa tion. Acknowledgment is also due to the Atlantic Monthly for permission to reprint the introductory lecture by Professor Laughlin.
It is regretted that the conditions of publication made it impossible to reproduce the photographs which were used by Mr. H. F. J. Porter to illustrate his two lectures on forging. This has in turn made it necessary for the author to abridge the text, which as printed in this volume, inadequately represents the lectures as delivered.
