As someone deeply invested in history, I've often focused on the who, where, and what of events. However, this book's exploration of the Why has truly broadened my perspective on American history. It's illuminating how political and business dynamics have steered the course of our nation's growth, revealing new layers of understanding.

The book explores the rich history of American entrepreneurship and business, which, although not typically my area of interest, I recognize is essential knowledge for anyone seeking to build a strong foundation for future success. By studying the past, we can gain valuable lessons and insights to inform and inspire our own paths forward.
