Synopsis

This is the definitive biography of Cornelius Vanderbilt - the 19th century transportation tycoon who accumulated the largest private fortune in US history. As one review states "Renehan convincingly presents Vanderbilt as the prototype of the purely economic man, a real-life Ebenezer Scrooge unclaimed by any cult of idealism and driven purely by profit".
