It is, quite simply, a tour de force."--The New York Times Book Review "As informative and entertaining a history, especially of the period from 1880 to 1930, as this reviewer has ever read . . . Nowhere has our tenuous financial system been better described than by Chernow."--John Rothchild, Los Angeles Times Book Review "Chernow deftly mixes biography with economics and explicates arcane matters of high finance with sparkling clarity. . . . A fascinating historical journey from Charles Dickens' London to Tom Wolfe's New York."--David M. Kennedy, The Atlantic Monthly "An astonishingly detailed and fascinating story of the Morgan banks and the men who have run them. Chernow uses his gift for description to bring out vividly the personalities of his principals."--Don Keown, San Francisco Chronicle "Epic . . . Chernow melds deep insights into the life and times of Morgan bankers over 150 years with the flow of world history and the growth of banking and finance. With rich detail and warmth, he brings to life the defunct species of gentleman banker."--Bill Barnhart, Chicago Tribune, Winner of the National Book Award As a portrait of finance, politics and the world of avarice and ambition on Wall Street, the book has the movement and tension of an epic novel.
