The book A. T. Stewart by Elbert Hubbard is a biography of Alexander Turney Stewart, an American entrepreneur and philanthropist who lived during the 19th century. Stewart was known for his successful career in the dry goods business, which eventually led to him becoming one of the wealthiest men in America during his time. The book provides a detailed account of Stewart's life, starting with his childhood in Ireland and his early years in New York City. It covers his rise to success in the dry goods industry, including his founding of the first department store in the United States, which revolutionized the way people shopped for goods. The author also explores Stewart's personal life, including his marriage to Cornelia Mitchell Clinch and their philanthropic efforts, which included the establishment of the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art. Throughout the book, Hubbard provides insights into Stewart's character, his business acumen, and his impact on American society. The book is a fascinating look at one of America's most successful entrepreneurs and provides valuable insights into the history of American business and philanthropy.THIS 32 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Little Journeys to the Homes of the Great: Businessmen, by Elbert Hubbard.
