This book reveals the life of R. Clay Crawford, his dreams, his
schemes, his successes and his failures, as he launched himself
into many of the most turbulent episodes of nineteenth-century
United States history. Like everyone else, he was born with a
family history, not just genetic, but also cultural, determinants;
this book therefore reveals the influences on his behavior
inherited from his father and his grandfathers. And, again like
everyone else, he passed on to his children a model, not just
genetic, but cultural. Even so, Clay's story is not just a family
affair. Clay was a ""self-made man,"" living in an age when that
figure was thought to be a national asset-he thus stands out as a
warning that the worship of the ""self-made man"" produces more
rogues than Rockefellers.
