Drawing on historical records and modern statistical tools, Price Fishback, Jonathan Rose, and Kenneth Snowden investigate important unanswered questions to provide an unparalleled view of the mortgage loan industry throughout the 1920s and early '30s. Combining this with the stories of those involved, the book offers a clear understanding of the HOLC within the context of the housing market in which it operated, including an examination of how the incentives and behaviors at play throughout the crisis influenced the effectiveness of policy." -- $c Publisher's description. 610 20 $a Home Owners' Loan Corporation $x History. 650 0 $a Mortgage loans $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Home ownership $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a New Deal, 1933-1939. 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628. 700 1 $a Rose, Jonathan Derek. 700 1 $a Snowden, Kenneth A. 830 0 $a Markets and governments in economic history. 830 0 $a NBER series on long-term factors in economic development. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018025630.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826081227.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20140816010812.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A901D844250A11E49299BDE9DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
