"As an American historian who studies the political economy of the antebellum period, I have always been fascinated by the panic of 1837-a financial cataclysm that is, according to one recent book, deserving of the term "America's First Great Depression." During the 2012-13 winter break, I typed "Panic of 1837" in the Wikipedia search field and found a disjointed entry listing only a few secondary sources. This was vexing, to put it mildly. The editors of Wikipedia had flagged the entry for biased or incomplete information and solicited a "specialist" in US history for improvements. "
