Summary
The first published biography of an American titan whose reach across industry, government, and philanthropy was unmatched. Since his death in 1937, Andrew Mellon has been acclaimed and reviled, ignored and rehabilitated. Now David Cannadine depicts in full this complex character whose busy life stretched from pre-Civil War Pittsburgh to East Coast corridors of power and the run-up to the Second World War. A brilliant and innovative banker, Mellon was an agent and a beneficiary of one of the greatest changes this country has ever undergone
