Andrew Carnegie Giant Of Industry
569 words
Andrew Carnegie, the King of Steel, the benevolent
employer, the giant of industry, was among the
greatest influences of the second industrial
revolution. It is sometimes questioned whether
Carnegie was the ruthless, sneaky steel tyrant
some made him out to be, or the generous,
benevolent education benefactor he appeared to be.
I believe him to be a combination of both, but
more so the great giant of industry. Carnegie was
the classic rags to riches story, the penniless

shipmates is the wit and ability to trust the gods
with their advice. The Odyssey begins 10 years
after the Iliad had left off and Odysseus is
trapped on an island with Calypso. Odysseus then
has many hardships upon which he overcomes through
his intelligenc...

the regularity in the directions of rotation and
orbit of objects in the solar system, the slow
rotation of the Sun, and the Titles-Bode law,
which state...
