The book presents Carnegies' memories from his early childhood to the days of his creations, including his overview of significant world events and prognosis for the future, which he saw as very optimistic. A reader learns a lot about Carnegie's childhood, first work, and then first business undertakings, which led him to the position of one of the richest men in the world. The second part of the book "The Gospel of Wealth" is Carnegie's on how the rich should improve society by sharing money for the common good. There he supported the idea of progressive taxation and estate tax and set a fashion for philanthropy.
Andrew Carnegie was one of America's wealthiest businessmen, who started his career working as a telegrapher. At the age of 35, he already had investments in railroads, bridges, and oil derricks. After selling his company Pittsburgh's Carnegie Steel Company, Carnegie became the richest man in America, surpassing John Rockefeller for a couple of years. He was also known as a philanthropist, for he spent a considerable part of his money on funding schools, universities and establishing libraries.
