One of the earliest memoirs of an American capitalist, this volume appeared shortly after the 84-year-old author's death in 1919. Its real-life, rags-to-riches tale recounts the Scottish immigrant's rise from telegrapher's clerk to captain of industry and steel magnate. Includes "Gospel of Wealth," an influential essay outlining Carnegie's philanthropic views.
