| | Fifty Years in Wall Street
I’ve
been restoring Henry Clews’s Fifty Years in Wall Street (1908). I have the
original book, but the pages have yellowed, and the hinge is cracked. One can
download a PDF of the original for free—public domain—from archive.org. Among
the gems in this book is an address he gave to Yale students in 1907. If I ever
have to give such a speech to students, I’ll adapt his speech of advice to
young men starting in life.
Clews’s
story of Commodore Vanderbilt’s short squeeze was fictionalized in “Face the
Music,” the third episode of HBO’s The Gilded Age.
For
my purposes, I split the book into Part One and Part Two. I added a
table of the dates of birth, death, and age at death of the men illustrated in
the original book. I also added the dates of birth and death to each photo.
Otherwise, I couldn’t keep all the generations of Roosevelts, Vanderbilts,
Clewses, Astors, and Rothschilds straight. |
