Many thanks to the folks who had the citation I was looking for at their
fingertips, and to those who supplied others of interest. Several people
asked for a follow up, so here they are:

Account Books," Midwestern Archivist, vol. V/1 (1980) (reprinted in Archival
Issues 25 (2000), 77-89).
   Dennis Meissner, "The Evaluation of Modern Business Accounting
Records,"Midwestern Archivist, v.5/2 (1981), 77-99.

American Management (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1989).
