The House of Morgan: an American banking dynasty and the rise of modern financeBy: Ron Chernow
Chernow vividly portrays the influence that the Morgan banks have had on the history of the Western economy since the late 18th century. The epic story of the development of the American industrial experience is inextricably related to the history of the Morgan banks. Though this fascinating story is virtually the same as that told by Kathleen Bunk in Morgan Grenfell, 1838-1988, Chernow adds color and personality with an emphasis on the 20th-century development of the bank. Working with [the] Morgan archives, he reveals institutional details long hidden by the protective secrecy of the family.
