Book Reviews of The House of Morgan: An American Banking Dynasty and the Rise of Modern Finance
Book Review: Fixing the System after the Age of the Robber Barons
Summary: 5 Stars
Ron Chernow provides an excellent overview of the House of Morgan from the days of Junius to the present. Perhaps the most interesting part describes the efforts of J.P Morgan to salvage American companies from the ravages of the Robber Barons. The book provides a more balanced view of what the Morgan System accomplished. This book gave me a broad overview of turn of the century American business.
