Historical Inquiry

folks, i have a specific question to the list. I will be grateful if you
can help me clarify this issue. Public and private responses are welcome.

1) how severely 1907 crisis (recession? depression? panic?) effected UK
economy? was it felt more strongly in the US compared to UK?

2) I can not exactly trace the origins of 1907 crisis. do you have any
clue about it? I have a set of data showing economic recession,
depression and panic timeline in the "US economy" between 1808-1995 (great
thanks to Geoff fellow from WSN).In this data, 1908 is classified as
"panic". I don't know if this corresponds to the 1907 crisis I am talking
about. what is this 1907 crisis to be exact? 


3)In the encyl of international political economy (thanks to Patrick Bond
for his extraordinary help), there is an information about business
cycles "interrupted by severe financial panics--1873, 1882, 1890, 1893,
1920, 1929, 1931 and various 1980s-90s crises". where does 1907 crisis fit
in this picture? or am I just stating a wrong year?


any info is welcome!

thanks,
