The article discusses the unpublished memoir of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, financier Jay C. Cooke. According to the article, half of the memoir reviews Cooke's experiences in U.S. Civil War finance, including his role in the immediate aftermath of the Confederate attack upon Fort Sumter, South Carolina, in 1861. The author states that Cooke's memoir also discusses Cooke's contract for the sale of U.S. war bonds, which the author asserts was nearly exclusive. The article states that Cooke's memoir also reflects upon the state of banking in Philadelphia during the Civil War, state politics, but offers scant information about his personal life. The article states that the memoir is housed at the Baker Library Historical Collections of the Harvard Business School.
