The Anatomy of Prejudice: Origins of the Robber Baron Legend

Author

Listed:
  • Tipple, John

Abstract

Who were the originators of the Robber Baron concept? Not the injured, the poor, the faddists, the jealous, or a dispossessed elite. Rather, it was a frustrated group of observers led at last by protracted years of harsh depression to believe that the American dream of abundant prosperity for all was a hopeless myth.
