History of Municipal Bonds Does anyone have a good book on the history of Muni Bonds that focuses on the reasons why they grew in popularity, adoption, and gov policy souring them. 

Background on why I need this info

I am writing a paper for my college history class, titled when wall street met main street. We are allowed to self select a topic and I chose to focus on the change in  the bond markets and that relationship with the public.

What I think could be a great topic is the rise lease revenue bonds for funding prisons, and how this has played out.
The Guidebook to Municipal Bonds: The History, the Industry, the Mechanics (1991) by George J. Malvin

The Tax Policy Center Briefing Book on The State of State (and Local) Tax Policy might be a good place to call.
