Barclays – The Business of Banking 1690-1996 may not be everyone’s idea of a page-turner. On the surface it looks as if it might appeal to the select few for whom interim company reports are favoured leisure reading.

There is, though, more to the book, published by Cambridge University Press, than immediately meets the eye.
