Andrew Carnegie: The Definitive Biography by David Nasaw is a monumental work that paints a vivid portrait of one of the most influential figures in American history. This Pulitzer Prize-winning biography offers an unparalleled insight into Carnegie's life, from his humble beginnings as a Scottish immigrant to his rise as a legendary industrialist and philanthropist.

Nasaw's meticulous research and masterful storytelling bring Carnegie to life, revealing a complex and fascinating character. Carnegie was a man of contradictions: a ruthless businessman who believed in the power of competition but also a generous philanthropist who gave away the vast majority of his wealth. He was a self-made millionaire who became one of the richest men in the world, yet he remained a humble and accessible figure. Carnegie's life is a testament to the American Dream, but it is also a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked power.

Nasaw's biography is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, business, or philanthropy. It is a definitive account of Carnegie's life and legacy, and it offers a timeless exploration of the power and responsibility that comes with great wealth.
