| Why it’s on the list | The standard biography of Charles M. Schwab — Carnegie’s plant manager at Braddock, president of Carnegie Steel, first president of U.S. Steel when J. P. Morgan assembled it in 1901, and then the builder of Bethlehem Steel into its chief rival. Hessen works from Schwab’s own papers and is as interested in how he ran mills and paid men as in the deal-making. |
