  MORE HESSLER BOOKS
  

  Robert J. Galiette writes: "I also think that Gene Hessler's
  prior work to produce the book "A History of U.S. Loans:
  1775 - 1898" will be appreciated all the more as time goes
  by. It's a very challenging subject to research and illustrate.
  It's not surprising that it was fifteen years in the making, and
  that it needed the seasoned experience of a curator of a
  major financial museum in order to accomplish it.
  

  Many collectors enjoy currency, and a five or ten dollar
  bill is not on its face a difficult item to understand and
  appreciate. However, stocks, bonds convertible securities,
  loan agreements and other documents produced by the
  same engravers in more elaborate fashion, and often signed
  by the persons who shaped U.S. finance, have a lot of
  depth still to be studied in reconstructing and understanding
  the financial history that underlies this country."
