This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes us back to nineteenth-century America and discusses the Industrial Revolution and how people like Vanderbilt, Edison, and Rockefeller made their fortunes. It also gives a comprehensive survey of the United States, at the end of the Civil War, that would reveal a state of society that bears little resemblance to that of today. Almost all those commonplace fundamentals of existence, the things that contribute to our bodily comfort while they vex us with economic and political problems, had not yet made their appearance. The America of Civil War days was a country without transcontinental railroads, telephones, European cables, wireless stations, automobiles, electric lights, sky-scrapers, million-dollar hotels, trolley cars, or a thousand other contrivances that today supply the conveniences and comforts of what we call our American civilization.

Book excerpt: In this volume are presented examples of men who shed luster upon ordinary pursuits, either by the superior manner in which they exercised them or by the noble use they made of the leisure which success in them usually gives. Such men are the nobility of republics. The American people were fortunate in having at an early period an ideal man of this kind in Benjamin Franklin, who, at the age of forty-two, just mid-way in his life, deliberately relinquished the most profitable business of its kind in the colonies for the sole purpose of developing electrical science.
