And would you be thrilled to find a collection of stories of the great industrialists that literally brought to the fore the fruits of American capitalism and philanthropy - men whose wealth, influence, and philanthropy easily dwarfed that of our modern-day billionaires?

If you've answered YES, keep reading...

You Are About To Discover The Biographies Of America's Oil And Steel Founding Fathers, Andrew Carnegie, John D Rockefeller And Henry Clay Frick, That Led To The Gilded Age

Do you know there was a time in history when the business magnates and titans boasted of so much more wealth than the world has seen from even the top technology visionaries and innovators?

The tech giants like Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and even Jeff Bezos do not even remotely compare to the kind of wealth that John D Rockefeller possessed and others such as Andrew Carnegie and Henry Clay Frick.

During America's Gilded Age, which stretched for almost half a century (1870-1900), there was so much progress that was made in the United States that cannot be denied.

The kind of Second Industrial Revolution that the country underwent due to the various figures of wealth and power was nothing short of impressive economic growth. Especially during such a time of great expansion and fewer regulations, they had the power and means to create opportunities and jobs for so many people, such as typewriters, cash registers, or even mechanical reapers.

So, you can only imagine the kind of wealth and power these men possessed.

That's why, until today, there has never been a wealthier man than John D Rockefeller in today's economy.

Probably you're wondering...

Who exactly are these wealthy and powerful men that transformed the United States?

What businesses did they engage in that made them so rich and powerful?

How were they able to gather so much power and wealth?

Which are some of the philanthropic acts they made while still alive?

And what kind of life and legacy did they leave behind even after their deaths?

If you have these and other related questions, this will be subject to discussion in this book.

More precisely, you'll find:

All about the beginning days of Andrew Carnegie and his life as an industrialistWays in which Carnegie bridged the gap, controlled the empire, and created a new era of steelThe philanthropy and works of Andrew CarnegieThe ins and outs of the birth, family, religion, and career of the John D RockefellerAn in-depth analysis of the standard oil era and the post-standard oil era and how Rockefeller was involvedAn insider peek into Rockefeller's philanthropyThe death of Rockefeller and the legacy he left behind after his deathAll about the life and death of Henry Clay FrickThe early life of Henry Clay Frick and how he became so wealthyAn insight of the complex relationship between Frick and Carnegie and how it came to an endAnd much more
