The Gospel of Wealth And Other Timely Essays emphasizes the responsibility of those who accumulate great wealth to act as caretakers of it, using it for the betterment of society rather than personal extravagance. Written by one of the wealthiest individuals of his time, the work advocates for the idea that successful businesspeople should allocate their resources in ways that positively impact communities. The central message underscores the notion that wealth is not merely for personal gain but is meant to be shared for societal advancement. The text calls for a recalibration of wealth accumulation, urging individuals to view their fortune as a tool for public good. The book also reflects on the relationship between the United States and Britain, exploring how these two nations interact on various fronts. In addition to providing insight into the responsibilities of wealth, the book addresses broader societal and international dynamics, offering a perspective on the ethical considerations of prosperity and its societal obligations.

This posthumously published autobiography of Andrew Carnegie is a very well written and interesting accounts of the life of one of the wealthiest self-made men in American history. The industrialist and philanthropist lived his life according the following dictum: spend the first third of your life getting all the education you can; spend the next third making all the money you can; and spend the last third giving it all away for worthwhile causes. Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) was a Scottish-American philanthropist and industrialist, who made his fortune expanding the American steel industry. Born in Fife (Scotland), his family was poor and they emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1948, in hope of finding better fortune there. He started working for the railroads at an early age, earning his way up, before leaving that industry to focus on the steel industry after the Civil War. Carnegie was also an author and while he is mostly remembered for his posthumously published autobiography, he contributed to many periodicals, discussing labour issues, and published works such "The Gospel of Wealth" (1889) and "The Empire of Business" (1902).
