"Makes a reader feel like a time traveler plopped down among men
who were by turns vicious and visionary."--"The Christian Science
Monitor""" 
The modern American economy was the creation of four men: Andrew
Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, Jay Gould, and J. P. Morgan. They
were the giants of the Gilded Age, a moment of riotous growth that
established America as the richest, most inventive, and most
productive country on the planet.  
Acclaimed author Charles R. Morris vividly brings the men and their
times to life. The ruthlessly competitive Carnegie, the imperial
Rockefeller, and the provocateur Gould were obsessed with progress,
experiment, and speed. They were balanced by Morgan, the gentleman
businessman, who fought, instead, for a global trust in American
business. Through their antagonism and their verve, they built an
industrial behemoth--and a country of middle-class consumers. "The
Tycoons" tells the incredible story of how these four determined
men wrenched the economy into the modern age, inventing a nation of
full economic participation that could not have been imagined only
a few decades earlier.
