Reprint of the third edition. More convenient than the extensive contemporary works of Collier or Remington, Black's handy treatise, which uses the format of a West Hornbook, offers a summary of the law as it stood in the early 1920s. Though its size led some to suspect it was superficial, it was generally well-received and did much to popularize the field. As one reviewer wrote, "[i]t is to be hoped [this book] marks the beginning of a new period in bankruptcy law that will witness its welcoming into the repertoire of the lawyer as one of the regular devices for regulating business relations.": Nathan Isaacs, University of Pennsylvania Law Review 73 (1924-1925) 120.

"Daniel Platt's intriguing book details how American culture engaged the moral implications of debt from the Gilded Age to the New Deal era. Debt was once an unequivocal marker of failure and untrustworthiness, and those who carried debt were seen as spendthrifts, unable to control their finances or themselves. Yet later, debt became a marker of the responsible capitalist: evidence of mutual relations and responsibilities in the marketplace and the community. Platt shows that these characterizations of the moral qualities of debt and the debtor were often weaponized in support of racism, classism, sexism, and other kinds of discrimination"--
