Carnegie and the early fortune building in steel finance
The book The Romance of Steel recounts Carnegie’s rise in 1872 when Colonel Scott invited him to arrange a six trillion dollar bond deal for a Davenport branch line. Carnegie’s bold pitch and quick success earned a 250000 dollar commission, doubling his fortune though bonds later depreciated for buyers. The tale includes how a linen clerk helped Carnegie spot potential partners, notably George Lauder, and details the store-house management style that propelled Carnegie Steel. A later personal split with Colonel Scott centered on a Texas railroad venture and a lost romance, revealing the era’s high-stakes finance and rivalries.
