Subtitled a "Study of the trading post as an insitution", this monograph is a reworking of an address to the State Historical Society of Wisconsin in 1889 and published by Johns Hopkins Press. Turner discusses the great influence trade has had on the many great civilizations throughout history and narrows his focus from North American settlements to Wisconsin.
