Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book narrates the story of an intriguing conflict that gripped the American financial market in 1868. The discord, now infamously known as the Erie War, captured the attention of legislatures, the public, and even international onlookers. The author presents the events as a historical case study of the deep-rooted corruption and unchecked greed that plagued corporate America at the time. The Erie War involved a notorious railroad speculator, Daniel Drew, and his fierce struggle against the tycoon Cornelius Vanderbilt. These titans of the industry battled for control of the Erie Railway, a crucial artery of commerce that connected the Great Lakes to the Atlantic seaboard. Through Drew's cunning machinations and Vanderbilt's ruthless tactics, the stock market was manipulated, and vast fortunes were won and lost. The book delves into the strategies and schemes employed by these men, revealing a world where insider trading and stock manipulation were rampant. It also exposes the shocking failures of the legal system and regulatory bodies in addressing these corrupt practices. This book serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked corporate greed and the importance of strong regulatory oversight in the world of finance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
