J. Pierpont Morgan

J. Pierpont Morgan

The Emperor of Wall Street, John Pierpont Morgan died on March 31, 1913 at the age of 75. Like his childhood idol Napoleon Bonaparte, J. P. Morgan became one of the most important and historically significant men of his time, dominating the political and financial landscape of America. The best authoritative source describing the tremendous scope of Morgan’s power is Murray N. Rothbard’s seminal Wall Street, Banks, and American Foreign Policy. Other key volumes unlocking the secrets of Morgan’s hegemony can be found here.
