9780465068869: Dark Genius of Wall Street: The Misunderstood Life of Jay Gould, King of the Robber Barons

Synopsis

Though reviled for more than a century as Wall Street's greatest villain, Jay Gould was in fact its most original creative genius. Gould was the robber baron's robber baron, the most astute financial and business strategist of his time and also the most widely hated. In Dark Genius of Wall Street, acclaimed biographer Edward J. Renehan, Jr., combines lively anecdotes with the rich social tapestry of the Gilded Age to paint the portrait of the most talented financial buccaneer of his generation-- and one of the inventors of modern business.

From the Back Cover

Advance Praise for Dark Genius of Wall Street

"Edward J. Renehan has brought to life the multi-faceted Jay Gould like nobody else before him. Dark Genius of Wall Street is a sensitive, well-written, thoroughly engaging portrait of the Gilded Age's most colorful robber baron. Highly recommended!" -Douglas Brinkley, Director of the Theodore Roosevelt Center for American Civilization, and Distinguished Professor of History, Tulane University

"Dark Genius of Wall Street is a masterwork-entertaining, readable, and informative-by one of America's leading biographers. In our new Gilded Age of technological and financial transformation, this comprehensive reexamination of the most brilliant and enigmatic of all the robber barons could not be more timely." -James Strock, author of Theodore Roosevelt on Leadership and Reagan on Leadership
