American Entrepreneur: The Fascinating Stories of the People Who Defined Business in the United States

This book vividly illustrates the history of business in the US from the perspective of the enterprising women and men who made it happen.

Ever for the reason that first colonists landed in the New World, Americans have forged ahead in their quest to make good on promises of capitalism and independence. Weaving stirring narrative with economic analysis, this historical deep dive recounts the successes and screw ups of one of the most most iconic business people to grace our history books–from the founding of our country to the present day.

In American Entrepreneur, you’ll learn about how:

• Eli Whitney changed the shape of the American business landscape;
• the Civil War impacted the economy, and how it used to be renewed by the subsequent dominance of Andrew Carnegie and J. P. Morgan;
• Asa Candler, W. K. Kellogg, Henry Ford, and J.C. Penney led the upward thrust of the consumer marketplace;
• and Warren Buffett’s, Michael Milken’s, and Martha Stewart’s experience in the “New Economy” in the 1990s–and how that economy continues these days.

It is an adventure to start a business, and the greatest risk takers in that adventure are entrepreneurs. This is the epic story of The united states’s entrepreneurs and how they created the economy we enjoy these days.
