About this book

Peter Krass examines Andrew Carnegie's life against the unequal conditions of America's Gilded Age. Contrasting industrial wealth with the housing, sanitation and working conditions around Pittsburgh's mills, the biography questions the distance between prosperity and its human costs. A personal connection to a mill worker in his own family informs the author's attention to the labor behind Carnegie's success.

Peter Krass

Carnegie runs to some six hundred pages and declines to choose between the man who gave away three hundred million dollars and the employer whose Homestead works met a strike in 1892 with Pinkerton agents and left men dead on both sides.
