Myers examines the fortunes of families such as the Vanderbilts, Rockefellers, and Carnegies, tracing their origins and detailing the methods they used to amass their wealth. He also explores the social and political implications of their immense power and influence, including their involvement in labor disputes, political corruption, and the exploitation of workers.
