Dzhon D. Rokfeller. Promyshlennik i filantrop - Nevins Allan

In the proposed book, author Allan Nevins analyzes the multifaceted but at the same time, in a sense, the limited personality of John D. Rockefeller. Children's years, extraordinary parents, the beginning of the path in business, where there was a lot: bribery of officials, and the ruin of competitors - in short, everything that characterizes the first stage of wild capitalism. But from the first days of his activity Rockefeller sacrificed much and consistently both the church community and, subsequently, the foundation, which still exists and bears his name. This book reveals the secrets of how one person managed to concentrate in his personality such a powerful influence on the fate of all mankind.
