"Jean Strouse is one of the foremost biographers in America--a fine scholar and a natural writer, with the imaginative sensitivity to see below the surface of events and the intellectual power to give brilliant narrative coherence to what she sees. Pierpont Morgan, the central banker of the United States before the Great War, was one of the most contradictory public figures of the Gilded Age. In this engrossing story--an extraordinary accomplishment, filled with the vitality of the biographer and the fascination of her subject--Morgan has finally met his match."
--Michael Holroyd
