About This Item
John Wiley & Sons Inc, Somerset, New Jersey, U.S.A., 2002.. Very Good/Very Good. Royal octavo, hardcover, near fine in near fine brown pictorial dj. Like Morgan, Rockefeller, Carnegie, Marshall Field was one of the overlords of capitalism in the Gilded Age of the late 19th C. His wealth and philanthropy masked a disastrous personal life. Alienated from his children, deserted by his wife, he left a legacy of immense wealth and misery. This multigenerational saga of money, madness, and mystery tells a Jekyll-and-Hyde story of American capitalism--a tale of drive and nerve and moral stumbles.".
