Andrew W. Mellon: The Man and His Work is a biographical account of the life and career of Andrew W. Mellon, one of the most influential figures in American business and politics in the early 20th century. Written by Philip H. Love, the book traces Mellon's rise from a successful banker and businessman to a prominent public figure, serving as the Secretary of the Treasury under three different U.S. Presidents.The book explores Mellon's personal life, including his marriage to his second wife, Nora McMullen, and his close relationships with his children and grandchildren. It also delves into his philanthropic work, including his contributions to the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.Love provides an in-depth analysis of Mellon's economic policies as Secretary of the Treasury, including his efforts to reduce the national debt and reform the tax code. The book also examines Mellon's role in shaping the Republican Party's economic platform during the 1920s and his opposition to Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal policies in the 1930s.Overall, Andrew W. Mellon: The Man and His Work offers a comprehensive portrait of a complex and influential figure in American history, shedding light on his personal life, business career, and political legacy.1929. Andrew W. Mellon is perhaps the only great public figure who has not been made the subject of a biography. Like most men, he did not realize his own importance. He refuses to believe that the story of his life is sufficiently interesting to merit placing it between the covers of a book. There is no more interesting man in America than Andrew Mellon. No rags to riches story as his, but he is well worth writing about and reading about. Just because he was born to fortune does not mean that his story is lacking in romance. It isn't. On the contrary, his life has been replete with romance - the romance of achievement!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
