Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of the early years of the life insurance industry in 19th century America. Investing in Life considers the creation and expansion of the American life insurance industry from its early origins in the 1810s through the 1860s and examines how its growth paralleled and influenced the emergence of the middle class. Using the economic instability of the period as her backdrop, Sharon Ann Murphy also analyzes changing roles for women; the attempts to adapt slavery to an urban, industrialized setting; the rise of statistical thinking; and efforts to regulate the business environment. Her research directly challenges the conclusions of previous scholars who have dismissed the importance of the earliest industry innovators while exaggerating clerical opposition to life insurance. Murphy examines insurance as both a business and a social phenomenon. She looks at how insurance companies positioned themselves within the marketplace, calculated risks associated with disease, intemperance, occupational hazard, and war, and battled fraud, murder, and suicide. She also discusses the role of consumers?their reasons for purchasing life insurance, their perceptions of the industry, and how their desires and demands shaped the ultimate product.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Investments of Life Insurance Companies After 1800 companies began to be organised to carry on the business of life insurance. Up to 1835, no com pany was organised and succeeded which had for its sole purpose the insuring of lives, but three important trust companies of the present day were incorporated be tween 1812 and 1833 which had the power among others of insuring lives. All three for some time did do a small life insurance business. In addition to these three trust and insurance companies combined, a num ber of the more prominent fire insurance companies did some Writing of life insurance. However, all the companies were proprietary companies organised chiefly for other purposes than life insurance and so far as they influenced life insurance history in this country did little more than to prove definitely that insurance of lives could be carried out as a business proposition.
