Dollars and Dominion by Professor Mary Bridges is a scholarly history of how United States banking power expanded overseas in the early twentieth century and helped lay foundations for later dollar dominance. Published by Princeton University Press in the America in the World series, the book sits at the intersection of economic history, business history, financial history, and United States foreign relations. Rather than treating American financial supremacy as a natural result of national growth, Bridges presents it as a contingent project built through institutional experimentation, government support, foreign borrowing, and on the ground improvisation. Her central object is the overseas branch bank, an often overlooked institution that connected American exporters, local elites, credit information systems, and emerging trade finance practices. The book explains how global financial infrastructure was assembled through mundane procedures as well as geopolitical ambition, while also showing how race, class, and gender assumptions shaped who received access to banking services and who remained outside them.
