The Tycoons. Charles R. Morris

The Tycoons. Charles R. Morris 2005. ISBN 0805075992. How Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, Jay Gould and J.P. Morgan Invented the American Supereconomy. I agree with Truman that the future is just history you have not read about, then this book will be a definite treat. Did you know that studying the 1800s US railway build outs would have foretold exactly what would happen when the world built out so much fibre/bandwidth in the "bubble?" For the China/India watcher lots of lessons to be learned from what went on in the US in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Aside from a strategy reading delight, the writing is a treat in these times of books written to a grade five level. When was the last time you used "epistolic"? Enjoy!
