4.9/5 (9653 ratings)
Description:Excerpt from The Romance of Steel: The Story of a Thousand MillionairesThis book is the first popular history of our greatest American industry. The wonderful story of steel is here told in such a way that those who have no technical knowledge of steel making may enjoy and appreciate the miracles that have been accomplished.First, it is a story of the electric expansion of a business from bankruptcy to billions. It is an American story of self help - of the unprivileged men who climbed from poverty to the commercial supremacy of the world. And also it is a biography of that most useful of all metals - the structural metal of modern civilisation.Now that the iron and steel business has passed into the hands of more than sixty thousand stockholders, there has come a demand for a popular book on the subject, which shall be not only picturesque, but accurate and instructive as well. Therefore, while I have written these pages after the manner of fiction, the facts have been gathered from the highest author ities. Fully nine-tenths of the material has been obtained at first hand, either from the Steel Kings themselves or from original documents.
