DESCRIPTION:This paper examines the emergence of a distinctive London bank
 ing profession across the eighteenth century. While the business side of t
 his important development has received much attention\, this study will pr
 ioritize the social and cultural forces behind this process as a guide to 
 wider metropolitan change. It will analyse a variety of exchanges between 
 bankers and customers as the former sought both professional and individua
 l advancement. Their experience can illuminate the broader interaction of 
 the commercial and landed classes at a key stage of societal transition.
