Andrew Carnegie Bibliography and Book Reviews
Andrew Carnegie's Autobiography
Andrew Carnegie's Autobiography
"Andrew Carnegie established a gospel of wealth that can be neither ignored nor forgotten and set a pace in distribution [of that wealth] that succeeding millionaires have followed as a precedent. He became a nation-builder, a leader in thought, a writer, a speaker, the friend of workmen, schoolmen and statesmen.

"But these were merely interesting happenings in his life as compared with his great inspirations – his distribution of wealth, his passion for world peace, and his love for mankind."
John C. Van Dyke, Editor’s Note, Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie


Andrew Carnegie Biographies
"THe Life of Andrew Carnegie" by Hendrick
“Burton J. Hendrick has done more than depict the granddaddy of our modern steel industry. He has depicted that industry, for its creation and its development were so closely locked with that jovial Scot’s own life, that neither the man nor the industry can be considered, save together. 
Slide showing images of Andrew Carnegie and front cover of
"When one contemplates the steel industry and its most glorious figure, he finds himself facing the whole modern world which was blown from the Bessemer furnace. This is not merely a biography, but an absorbingly told study of an epoch.”
Mark S. Watson, Baltimore Sun, November 20, 1932​

Andrew Carnegie's Quotes, Books and Publications
Carnegie Quotes
"Nothing should be done that would tend to reduce diversity of talents in our [human] race. Everything should be done to increase it if possible; for it is through "variation" the progress of the [human] race has been achieved, and progress is the chief end of existence.

"This is our God-like mission: that every individual in his day and generation push this march upward, so that each succeeding generation may be better than the preceding."
Andrew Carnegie, The Empire of Business,1913

Carnegie's "Round the World"
Andrew Carnegie was curious of the customs and practices of people in other places, but constantly exhibited the skill of putting himself into the other man’s shoes. He tried to understand the beliefs in the East that must have seemed so extremely foreign to him.

​After reading “Round the World,” I found Andrew Carnegie a man of adventure. To set off on an around the world “excursion” of eight months in 1878 would seem to make the point.

Carnegie's "The Empire of Business"
​"The value of this book is . . . a message to the world. The message in itself is as old as business enterprise. . . . but the whole secret of the worth of the present volume lies in its authorship, . . . as the time-worn advice becomes vivified when written by Andrew Carnegie.

"Certainly 'The Empire of Business' is a work of great interest and usefulness, and its style is such as to place its contents clearly and briefly before the reader."
​The Baltimore Sun, April 17, 1902

Carnegie's "An American Four-in-hand"
Andrew Carnegie originally printed this manuscript for private circulation among a few dear friends—those who were, as well as those who were not a part of the coaching party. A publishing house believed they could put it into wider circulation and it was then published with few modifications.
Slide showing images of Andrew Carnegie and front cover of
Amazingly, there are a significant number of reviews. One witticism noted that instead of having four-in-hand in Britain, Mr. Andrew Carnegie … had millions-in-hand in America.
