Book Description
Excerpt from Banking in Iowa In the pages that follow the author has undertaken to give a history of banking in Iowa from the earliest settlement to the present time. Obviously many details had to be omitted in order to keep within the bounds of a single volume. More over, the information for certain periods and phases of the subject was very incomplete. Nevertheless it is believed that sufficient data have been presented to give a true record of Iowa's banking development. Special attention has been given throughout to legislation in regard to banking, since the laws enacted represent the popular sentiment toward banks and their control.

Book Description
Excerpt from Grief: 18 Years as a Middle Western Country Banker; Dedicated to the Banking Fraternity of the State of Iowa How well the writer recalls one bright September morn, in 1910, when his father Theo. Schmitt, of Holy Cross, Iowa, drove overland, driving Kate and Queen, to Farley, a distance of 14 miles south, to have his son, this writer, accept a position with the Farley State Bank of that town, as Assistant Cashier. The day was bright; the weather balmy; the roads such as they usually were in 1910, before the days of the Highway Commission and Bond Issues. Everything seemed bright and ideal for this son to make something of himself in the Banking interests of the State.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Young Bank Messenger Ust on the edge of the prairie, in western Iowa, some thirty years since, stood a cabin covering quite a little ground, but only one story high. It was humble enough as a home, but not more so than the early homes of some who have become great. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The History of the First National Bank in the United States: A History of the First National Bank of Davenport, Iowa, Preceded by Some Account of Banking Under State Laws and Early Banking in Davenport In presenting this little volume to the public the aim has been to set forth in concise form the facts leading up to the establishment of the first bank which opened its doors for business under the National Bank Act of 1863, together with a history of its progress for the half century of its existence, and to make plain the marked advance which has occurred during the past seventy years in lifting the banking institutions of the United States on to a higher plane of efficiency, stability and permanency. Naturally, more than ordinary interest attaches to the first of any species, and so a great many requests have been made that the history of the bank which first began business under the law of 1863 should be compiled. The National Banking system has grown to be such a powerful factor in handling the fiscal transactions of a great commercial nation; it has done so much to furnish the people with a safe and uniform currency, and its wise and sound provisions have exerted such a wide influence in shaping legislation governing State banks in the different commonwealths of the Union, that a desire naturally arises to know more of the bank which first set forth under that system to transact a banking business.
