This is the first full-scale study of the career of late-eighteenth
century entrepreneur William Duer. A member of the New York State
Convention and the Continental Congress, and Assistant to the
Secretary of the Treasury when the Federal government was
organized, Duer had a role in all the significant changes that
occurred during the revolutionary period. In addition, Duer was a
stock speculator, a land promoter, an army contractor, and
merchant. While he was Secretary to the Board of Treasury, Duer
floated the Scioto Land Comapny, one of the biggest speculations
ever attempted in the United States.
