An American Four-In-Hand In Britain This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!
Autorenporträt
Andrew Carnegie was a Scottish-American industrialist and philanthropist, renowned for leading the expansion of the American steel industry in the late 19th century. Born on November 25, 1835, in Dunfermline, Scotland, he immigrated to the United States with his family at a young age. Carnegie worked his way up from humble beginnings, starting in a cotton factory before investing in railroads and eventually establishing his steel company. His innovations and leadership in the steel industry made him one of the wealthiest individuals in American history. Carnegie believed in the responsibility of the wealthy to use their resources for the betterment of society, and he became a prominent philanthropist, funding numerous educational, cultural, and public institutions, including Carnegie Mellon University. He was also deeply involved in the development of libraries and charitable foundations. Carnegie passed away on August 11, 1919, in Lenox, Massachusetts, at the age of 83. He was the son of William Carnegie and Margaret Morrison Carnegie, and had a sibling, Thomas M. Carnegie. His daughter, Margaret Carnegie Miller, survived him.
