2000réf. vot360Charleston SC: Arcadia 2000. First Edition. Signed and inscribed by the Author. Octavo softbound stiff photo. illus. slick wrappers 128 pp. Fine. From lower cover: Banking in the sparsely settled frontier Florida of the nineteenth century was not for the timid or the easily discouraged. Being neither of these the indomitable William Boyd Barnett opened a private bank in Jacksonville in 1877 that would later bear his name. Barnett and his two sons built a successful family business and by the early 1880s their bank had become the largest in Florida. During the next several decades the bank played a part in a number of historically significant events from the financing of the Disston land purchase that solidified the state’s finances in the 1880s to the rebuilding of Jacksonville after the destructive 1901 fire. Over the course of its 120-year history Barnett maintained a signiicant presence in Florida’s economic development and in the evolution of the American banking industry. The Barnett name became synonymous with sound conservative well-managed banking and at the time of its sale in 1998 Barnett was the oldest and largest banking organization in Florida. The story of this company however is more than just a series of strong leaders or the annual recap of asset growth and profitability. It is the story of the thousands of people both employees and customers who played a vital part in the bank’s success. Showcasing vintage photographs and a detailed historical narrative Barnett Bank provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of this institution which beame in the words of one of its successful marketing campaigns “Florida’s Bank.” Author and Barnett historian David J. Ginzl has compiled some of the most interesting images from the bank’s long history featuring construction projects and holiday parties formal portraits and newsletter snapshots. The historic photographs advertisements and other memorabilia in this collection illustrate the way banking has changed over the years and capture the unique corporate spirit of the Barnett “family.” Arcadia, (2000).

From dust jacket: In 2905 Sam Stein a young Jewish immigrant from Russia arrived in New York with $43 in his pocket and dreams of building a better life. Sam whose photo is on the cover soon drifted west to Memphis and then down the Mississippi River to Greenville Mississippi. He became a peddler carrying a heavy sack of cheap household goods to poor rural homes throughout the Delta. Within a few years he opened a small store in Greenville. From that humble beginning almost a century ago has grown a national retail merchandising chain with more than 260 stores from coast-to-coast. The history of Stein Mart is the story of a remarkable family. Sam Stein built a successful business selling work clothes and inexpensive merchandise to workers in town and to tenants and sharecroppers on the large farms surrounding Greenville. His four children continued the business which eventually split into two stores Sam Stein’s and Stein’s Self Service Store. Sam’s oldest son Jake had dreams of building something bigger and better. He expanded the Self Service Store to a whole city block. With a flair for merchandising and a commitment to deeply discounted prices he transformed his store renamed Stein Mart into a regional retailing success story. University of Tampa Press, 2004.
