Building America on Steel
Thesis
During the period just after the American Civil war, while the war-torn America is rebuilding, Andrew Carnegie, a Scottish boy from a poor family rises to great feats changing America forever. His vision and risks taken throughout his career help bring modernization to American cities strengthening the economy and bringing the United States to world power. With his astronomical figures of wealth, (About 310 Billion Dollars Today) he shows selflessness and sets the example of donating money to benefit the less fortunate for decades and centuries to come.
