The House of Morgan: A Social Biography of the Masters of Money by Lewis Corey is a comprehensive and engaging account of the Morgan family and their influence on American finance and politics. The book covers the history of the Morgan family from the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century, tracing their rise to power as one of the most powerful banking families in the world.The book begins with the story of Junius Spencer Morgan, who emigrated from England to the United States in the mid-19th century and established himself as a prominent banker. The book then follows the careers of his son, J.P. Morgan, and his grandson, J.P. Morgan Jr., as they built up the family's banking empire and became some of the most influential figures in American finance.The House of Morgan also delves into the family's political connections, including their role in shaping American foreign policy during World War I and their close ties to several U.S. presidents. The book provides a fascinating look at the inner workings of American finance and politics during a time of great change and upheaval.Overall, The House of Morgan is a well-researched and engaging biography of one of America's most powerful families. Corey's writing is clear and engaging, making the book accessible to both casual readers and those with a more serious interest in finance and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
