Extract
This book builds upon the research and scholarship of others. While the notes make this clear, some contributors deserve special mention. Natalie Grow’s PhD dissertation, “The ‘Boston-Type Open-End Fund’—Development of a National Financial Institution: 1924–1940,” placed Paul Cabot’s activities in context and greatly enriched my understanding of the events of this period. Her bibliography of sources was an especially useful aid. But I only found these sources, and others, due to the resourcefulness of Paul Keane, a researcher (and something of a detective) working in the Washington, D. C. area.
While I heard all of the Paul Cabot stories directly from the source himself, I would not have remembered them all without the interviews, particularly those conducted by Jessica Holland for the Columbia University Oral History Research Office Collection.
The best part about writing a book is the new friends one makes and the old friendships that are rekindled. The following contributed to this work by supplying information, documents, photographs, advice, and, most importantly, encouragement: Bernard Bailyn, Frederick Ballou, Bob Beck, George Bennett, Peter Bennett, Francis H. Burr, Frederick C. Cabot, Paul Cabot Jr., Paul Cabot III, Wayne DeCesar of the National Archives and Records Administration, Charles Ellis, Charles Flather, Bill Frohlich, Bart Geer, Andrea Goldstein and her colleagues at the Harvard University Archives, Kathleen Victory Hannisian, Llewellyn Howland, Morton Keller, Phyllis Keller, Paula Kerrigan, Edward M. Lamont, Robert A. Lawrence, George Lewis, Marten Liander, Ken Lisotte, Jacqueline Lynch, Frank Mandic and Larry Mills of the SEC Records Office, Paul Morgan, Robert H. Parks and his colleagues at the FDR Presidential Library, H. Bradlee Perry, George Putnam Jr., William Saltonstall, John Schwartz and his colleagues at Goldman Sachs, John Thorndike, Rosario Tosiello, Peter Vermilye, Ike Williams, John Wood, Virginia “Chris” Cabot Wood, and last but not least, Joan Yogg.
