The National Book Award–winning history of American finance by the renowned biographer and writer of Hamilton: “A tour de force” (New York Times Book Review).

The House of Morgan is a panoramic story of four generations in the powerful Morgan circle of relatives and their secretive firms that would grow to be the modern financial world. Tracing the trajectory of J. P. Morgan’s empire from its obscure beginnings in Victorian London to the financial crisis of 1987, acclaimed writer Ron Chernow paints a captivating portrait of the circle of relatives’s private saga and the rarefied world of the American and British elite in which they moved—a world that included Charles Lindbergh, Henry Ford, Franklin Roosevelt, Nancy Astor, and Winston Churchill.

A masterpiece of financial history—it used to be awarded the 1990 National Book Award for Nonfiction and selected by the Modern Library as one of the vital 100 Best Nonfiction Books of the Twentieth Century—The House of Morgan is a compelling account of a remarkable institution and the men who ran it. It is very important reading for someone seeking to keep in mind the money and power at the back of the major historical events of the last 150 years.
