1 A study of mergers noticed in the Investor's Chronicle between 1919 and 1939, on which the present study draws, was financed by the Nuffield Foundation and the Social Science Research Council and carried out by Mrs P. D. Wright. M. R. Freedland, R. M. Hartwell, J. A. Kay, W. J. Reader and J. Wright commented helpfully on earlier drafts. They are not, of course, responsible for any errors or omissions. I have been asked to point out that reference in subsequent footnotes to the private archives of companies does not imply the existence of general access to those archives.
