MJCBY: The Money Kings

In The Money Kings, best-selling author and Journalist Dan Schulman traces the origin of what would become some of the largest investment banks in the world—Goldman Sachs, Kuhn Loeb, Lehman Brothers, and J. & W. Seligman & Co. He chronicles the paths of those who started these companies to Wall Street dominance, as they navigated the antisemitic upper class of the Gilded Age and the complexities of the Civil War, World War I, and the Zionist movement. Dan Schulman shows how their firms helped transform the US into a financial superpower and explains how they would help shape the destiny of millions of Eastern European Jews who came to NY in the early 1900s.
