      abstract = {A century ago, J. Pierpont Morgan bestrode the financial  world like a colossus. The organizing force behind General  Electric, U.S. Steel, and vast railroad empires, he served  for decades as America's unofficial central banker: a few  months after he died in 1913, the Federal Reserve replaced  the private system he had devised. An early supporter of  Thomas Edison and Andrew Carnegie, the confidant (and  rival) of Theodore Roosevelt, England's Edward VII, and  Germany's Kaiser Wilhelm, and the companion of several  fascinating women, Morgan shaped his world and ours in  countless ways. Yet since his death he has remained a  mysterious figure, celebrated as a hero of industrial  progress and vilified as a rapacious robber baron.},
