Book excerpt: There are worse men than John D Rockefeller,' Arena magazine observed at the turn of the century. 'There is probably not one, however, who in the public mind so typifies the grave and startling menace to social order.' The son of a flamboyant bigamist and pedlar of patent medicine, Rockefeller was by then America's richest man, the mastermind and creator of the country's first and most powerful monopoly: the Standard Oil Company. Reaching into every household across America, Standard Oil controlled 90% of all oil refined in the US, as well as its production, transportation, marketing and distribution. The story of Rockefeller is the story of a pivotal moment in modern history: the shift, after the American Civil War, from small-scale business to economy of scale, and the development of the first modern corporation. In Ron Chernow's magisterial work we see this transition in all of its nuances - accompanied by the rise in labour militancy, the tabloid press and large-scale philanthropy. TITAN is a business epic that, by illuminating the past, teaches us much about where we are today.

Book excerpt: National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist From the acclaimed, award-winning author of Alexander Hamilton: here is the essential, endlessly engrossing biography of John D. Rockefeller, Sr.—the Jekyll-and-Hyde of American capitalism. In the course of his nearly 98 years, Rockefeller was known as both a rapacious robber baron, whose Standard Oil Company rode roughshod over an industry, and a philanthropist who donated money lavishly to universities and medical centers. He was the terror of his competitors, the bogeyman of reformers, the delight of caricaturists—and an utter enigma. Drawing on unprecedented access to Rockefeller’s private papers, Chernow reconstructs his subjects’ troubled origins (his father was a swindler and a bigamist) and his single-minded pursuit of wealth. But he also uncovers the profound religiosity that drove him “to give all I could”; his devotion to his father; and the wry sense of humor that made him the country’s most colorful codger. Titan is a magnificent biography—balanced, revelatory, elegantly written.

This book was released on 2019-03-21 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Davison Rockefeller Free BONUS Inside!John Rockefeller went down in history forever as the first dollar billionaire and the richest man in the world. Many experts call him the richest man in history. Although it took almost a hundred years from that time, still no one is yet to "break his record" of eternal wealth. In 1917, the wealth of John Rockefeller was estimated to be approximately $ 1000 000 000, and back then it amounted to 2.5% of the total US GDP. The dollar of that time and the dollar today are two big differences, and his fortune today would be over 200 billion dollars. At the end of his life in 1937, the wealth of Rockefeller rose to 1.4 billion dollars, which now would be equal to 300 billion dollars! As a comparison, Bill Gates, whose name has also been ranked first for a long time among the richest people in the world is "only" worth 50 billion dollars. Thus, next to Rockefeller did not stand, even such "giants of money" like Warren Buffett, bill gates and others. Therefore, how could an ordinary man, a son of a lumberjack, who started his financial activities, as an accountant be able to create such astronomical condition of wealth?Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn... -Family Roots -Father of the Future Billionaire -Young Rockefeller -Career -Creating the Standard Oil Company -The Company Gained Momentum -Rockefeller's Fight -Personal Life -Charity -Rockefeller's Personal Qualities -Health Care -The Rockefellers Today -David Rockefeller -John D.

Book excerpt: "Random Reminiscences Of Men And Events" gives interesting insights into the life of the richest person in modern history. - Probably in the life of every one there comes a time when he is inclined to go over again the events, great and small, which have made up the incidents of his work and pleasure, and I am tempted to become a garrulous old man, and tell some stories of men and things which have happened in an active life. In some measure I have been associated with the most interesting people our country has produced, especially in business men who have helped largely to build up the commerce of the United States, and who have made known its products all over the world. These incidents which come to my mind to speak of seemed vitally important to me when they happened, and they still stand out distinctly in my memory.
