The Gospel of Wealth Essays and Other Writings by Andrew Carnegie
In the essay, Carnegie argues that the accumulation of wealth is beneficial to society and the government should take no action to impede it. He wrote, 'The man who dies rich dies disgraced', and practiced what he preached and spent his last years giving away his vast fortune.
Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) was a poor Scottish immigrant turned millionaire who came to symbolise the opportunity for social mobility that some call the American Dream.
