Focused on the post-Civil War expansion through the early 20th century, the book profiles powerful figures in banking, railroads, and heavy industry, revealing the consolidation of financial power and the mechanisms of wealth accumulation. Both historical narrative and economic analysis, it offers insight into how private capital came to dominate public policy and national development.
