Pierpont was a heavy drinker and smoker, and believed that exercise was unhealthy. The best part of the This is a very long book that suffers from two problems. Part I: The Baronial Age is focused on the MEN, namely George Peabody, Junius Spencer Morgan, an "Never before in the history of the world has there been such a powerful central control over finance, industrial production, credit, and wages as it is at this time vested in the Morgan group. This book has made me more interested in three things: 1 the history of railroads in the United States the Morgans were VERY involved in controlling a lot of railroads ; 2 financial history in general, though I think I want to start with more basics like the development of banking and accounting over the centuries, among other topics ; and 3 reading anything else by Ron Chernow.

Years later, he a said, "The American public seems unwilling to admit The Glass-Steagall act was aimed at the House of Morgan, which did private banking for individuals but only the ones they wanted, the very wealthy ones , but also was a merchant bank. Packaging should be the same as what is found in a retail store, unless the item is handmade or was packaged by the manufacturer in non-retail packaging, such as an unprinted box or plastic bag. I have to keep reminding myself what this book is about -- not about politics or banking history or even the Morgan family, per se, but about the institutional House of Morgan, the evolution of this particular bank-among-banks, and how it fared during the isolationist years in America through the Great Depression and the s. In a sense this was unfair: the crisis wasn't caused by them, since they weren't speculators. A readable copy. But why should you care?

Glass Steagall did a lot to erode it, not only by requiring the breakup to commercial and investment bank ie broker , but also as the series of lawsuits forced the bank to publish its balance sheets. Acclaimed by The Wall Street Journal as "brilliantly researched and written," the book tells the rich, panoramic story of four generations of Morgans and the powerful, secretive firms they spawned. So government enacted laws like Glass- Steagal in an attempt to limit the power of financial giants like J. This is a great contrast with the bankers of the s, who are mainly concentrated on speculative activities and hostile takeovers which seem to have very little to do with work of real value.

Nowhere has our tenuous financial system been better described than by Chernow. He wraps up with the bank, like every other Wall Street bank, taking on increased levels of risk, becoming obsessed with leveraged buyouts LBOs and deals garnering huge undeserved fees, and a few scandals involving Morgan employees. Jun 07, Martin rated it really liked it. This was the first Chernow documentary I ever read and immediately fell in love with his style. Pierpont did all he could to keep things running effectively, leaving a powerful and influential House of Morgan for his son, Jack, after his death in It is a rich, panoramic story of four generations of Morgans and the powerful, secretive firms they spawned, ones that would transform the modern financial world. Part of the full Morgan service was political clout and behind the scenes influence, which could have bad consequences in the diplomatic age when governments were clients of big banking houses. By the time Pierpont took over daily running of the House, banking became but one of the ventures undertaken to produce great wealth. That a Morgan partner should advocate socialism is not so startling. The Glass-Steagall act was aimed at the House of Morgan, which did private banking for individuals but only the ones they wanted, the very wealthy ones , but also was a merchant bank. They didn't trade stocks, seeing it as speculation. The rise in rail importance created a strong upswing in the Morgan profits and thereby helped earn Pierpont Morgan the title of Robber Barron in the late nineteenth century. Steel, who held private dinners to fix prices in the steel industry, testified: "I would be very glad if we had some place where we could go, to a responsible governmental authority, and say to them, 'Here are our facts and figures, here is our property, here our cost of production; now you tell us what we have the right to do and what prices we have the right to charge. Ron Chernow writes with such well thought out detail that it seems he never misses anything. Creating a financial aristocracy in America and laying the groundwork for international importance, the baronial age ushered in some of the most trying and successful years of the House of Morgan. I've added three other famous Chernow books to my to do list, but I venture to guess I have already read the best two. Rockefeller, Sr. The early House of Morgan was paternalistic towards its employees and stressed an esprit de corps—the importance of banking tradition over personal egos. Wish I could have given it 5 stars, but it was just not as engrossing for me from the s onward. But as there was increasing reliance on 'rented' capital, the power shifted to traders who bet on interest rates to hedge the cost of the CDs. There were many more options for companies to raise money issuing commercial paper, money markets and banks needed to schmooze and actively chase down deals. Open Preview See a Problem? American companies had simply grown large and self sufficient enough to not require banker's capital, and also there wasn't much investment and credit growth in the US during the 's for obvious reasons. Above all, it seems 6 May Phew! In those inter-war years, the House began seeing itself managed more by US administrations, through legislation. Thus, corporates increasing access to money markets distintermediated the banks. While Chernow sought to find a family whose influence on worldwide banking lasted long enough to write about its development, he has done so in spades with this exploration of the Morgans. Rockefeller, which chronicles the life and times of the richest man in the United States in the early s. The most important was undoubtedly Thomas Lamont. Nationalistic interests in Europe have historically led to internal conflicts, which has usually benefited America. It has been my experience, that modern political discourse and apparently throughout history, as the book elaborates , tends to dumb down the world of the finance for the average American. After graduating with honors from Yale College and Cambridge University with degrees in English Literature, he began a prolific career as a freelance journalist. What he did know is that they required steady revenues to cover their fixed interest costs on bonds marketed in New York and London.

The arrogance of the Morgan family was pretty astounding, and their role in the various financial panics was bizarre to read about from a 21st century perspective. After all, Pierpont, starting with his Railway associations of the late s, espoused industrial cooperation instead of competition. Pages and cover are clean and intact. The House of Morgan 1st edition Reviews From an engineering standpoint, Pierpont knew little about railroads. The early House of Morgan was paternalistic towards its employees and stressed an esprit de corps—the importance of banking tradition over personal egos.

Abstract The following investigation is intended to determine how the large-cap US multinational corporation was further advanced during the pivotal years of 1895-1913 by a leading private unincorporated institution—House of Morgan. Historical review and assessment focused on the broader US society, government, monetary landscape, the House of Morgan, leading large cap US multinationals; looking at both the key organizations and underlying people in power. The report framework focuses upon the development of the US super structure within which all major companies work down to the way actual institutions organize economic assets in the form of a multinational corporation. Questions that have been considered include: how was business conducted globally with so little formal mechanisms in place, the importance of the various forms of capital for business, and the various roles politics played in business development.

  • Who Tells Your Story?: Intersections of Power, Domesticity, and Sexuality Relating to Rap and Song in the Musical Hamilton
    WHO TELLS YOUR STORY?: INTERSECTIONS OF POWER, DOMESTICITY, AND SEXUALITY RELATING TO RAP AND SONG IN THE MUSICAL HAMILTON By Tia Marie Harvey A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Musicology—Master of Arts 2019 ABSTRACT WHO TELLS YOUR STORY?: INTERSECTIONS OF POWER, DOMESTICITY, AND SEXUALITY RELATING TO RAP AND SONG IN THE MUSICAL HAMILTON By Tia Marie Harvey In January 2015, Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Hamilton: An American Musical premiered at The Public Theater in New York City. Later that year it moved to Broadway with an engagement at the Richard Rodgers Theater, followed by productions in Chicago and London. Commercially successful and critically acclaimed, Hamilton continues to hold significant cultural relevance in 2019. As a result of this musical’s cultural significance, it has the ability to communicate positive, but also limiting, aspects of our society. In this thesis, I examine the concept of rap as a musical language of power. To do this, I assert that characters in Hamilton who have power, and particularly when expressing that power, do so through rap. In contrast, when characters don’t have power, or are entering realms of the powerless (i.e. spaces gendered female), they do so through lyrical song. In chapter 1, I set up the divide between rap and song as it primarily translates among male characters and class. Chapter 2 is focused on the domestic sphere, and in chapter 3 I discuss sexuality. In the conclusion of this thesis, I revisit the character of Eliza and explore the perceived power of her role as storyteller and the way in which the themes I discuss illuminate many missed opportunities to present an interpretation of America’s founding that is truly revolutionary.

Contact: [email protected] 1 World Wide Enough: Historiography, Imagination, and Stagecraft Benjamin L. Carp Is Hamilton good history? Or is this the wrong question? Hamilton: An American Musical is both an intriguing and imperfect vehicle for understanding the history of the American Revolutionary Era. The show is grounded in learned interpretation of archival sources. The show’s writer, Lin-Manuel Miranda, drew extensively from Ron Chernow’s well- researched biography, Alexander Hamilton. He and his co-creators also researched primary sources, quote from them extensively in the libretto, and use facsimiles of them on stage. Finally, the creators consulted other works to get a sense of historical context, while adding references to hip-hop, musical theater, films about the Revolutionary Era, and other sources.1 At the same time, Miranda relied too heavily on Chernow, who exaggerated Alexander Hamilton’s anti-slavery credentials and his sympathy with debtors, and deemphasized (or even celebrated) some of his more militaristic, elitist, and antidemocratic inclinations. Since there was little scholarly criticism of the biography when it appeared, however, current critics have been poorly equipped to engage in the debate over the quality of the musical’s history now.2 Miranda told a story that focused on elite characters, missing opportunities to show how the Revolution and its conflicts affected—and was effected by—a broader swath of the 1 Lin-Manuel Miranda, Hamilton: An American Musical, dir.

The economy recovered from a severe depression in the mid-1890s and business was growing again at a rapid pace. William McKinley was president and busi- nessmen were welcome in the White House. Yet discontent with big business was more prevalent among working people and farmers, who saw themselves as mere pawns on the chessboard of business. The press and muckrakers provided a shadow conscience for the country through exposés of working conditions and corrupt labor practices. The first decade of the twentieth century was characterized by strong antitrust sentiments culminating in several significant lawsuits that altered the American corporate landscape. Ironically, the cen- tury began by opening a window of opportunity that allowed several huge mergers to occur during what otherwise has become known as the Progressive Era. Once Theodore Roosevelt succeeded McKinley, a constant tug-of-war between big business and government began. Twenty years later, it was not clear who had won the struggle.

  • 1914 and 1939
    APPENDIX PROFILES OF THE BRITISH MERCHANT BANKS OPERATING BETWEEN 1914 AND 1939 An attempt has been made to identify as many merchant banks as possible operating in the period from 1914 to 1939, and to provide a brief profle of the origins and main developments of each frm, includ- ing failures and amalgamations. While information has been gathered from a variety of sources, the Bankers’ Return to the Inland Revenue published in the London Gazette between 1914 and 1939 has been an excellent source. Some of these frms are well-known, whereas many have been long-forgotten. It has been important to this work that a comprehensive picture of the merchant banking sector in the period 1914–1939 has been obtained. Therefore, signifcant efforts have been made to recover as much information as possible about lost frms. This listing shows that the merchant banking sector was far from being a homogeneous group. While there were many frms that failed during this period, there were also a number of new entrants. The nature of mer- chant banking also evolved as stockbroking frms and issuing houses became known as merchant banks. The period from 1914 to the late 1930s was one of signifcant change for the sector. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), 361 under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2018 B.
