{"product_id":"chernow-ron-titan-9781400077304","title":"Titan","description":"National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist From the acclaimed, award-winning author of Alexander Hamilton: here is the essential, endlessly engrossing biography of John D. Rockefeller, Sr.-the Jekyll-and-Hyde of American capitalism. In the course of his nearly 98 years, Rockefeller was known as both a rapacious robber baron, whose Standard Oil Company rode roughshod over an industry, and a philanthropist who donated money lavishly to universities and medical centers. He was the terror of his competitors, the bogeyman of reformers, the delight of caricaturists-and an utter enigma. Drawing on unprecedented access to Rockefeller's private papers, Chernow reconstructs his subjects' troubled origins (his father was a swindler and a bigamist) and his single-minded pursuit of wealth. But he also uncovers the profound religiosity that drove him \"to give all I could\"; his devotion to his father; and the wry sense of humor that made him the country's most colorful codger. Titan is a magnificent biography-balanced, revelatory, elegantly written.","brand":"Random House USA Inc","offers":[{"title":"Used - very good","offer_id":53460042842454,"sku":"9781400077304-V","price":17.69,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53970415583574,"sku":"9781400077304-G","price":17.84,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_9781400077304_1.jpg?v=1778622007","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/chernow-ron-titan-9781400077304","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
