NOTES
The saga of a Gilded Age mogul's rise and fall, inspired by a real historical figure, from the author of An American Tragedy. Inspired by the life of railway tycoon Charles Tyson Yerkes, these three novels weave a tale of American capitalism in the late nineteenth century. Included in this volume are: The Financier: Ruthlessly ambitious businessman Frank Cowperwood finds his life derailed by the financial panic of 1873. The Titan: Cowperwood leaves prison and heads to Chicago to regain his fortune-but his past follows close behind him. The Stoic: In London, Cowperwood pursues the opportunity to make a fortune from a new underground railway system, while facing hard truths about the life he has lived and the fate that lies ahead
