Ages of American Capitalism: A History of the United States

byJonathan Levy

Ages of American Capitalism is Jonathan Levy's historical account of a History of the United States. Moving between close detail and context, the book explains the forces surrounding its subject and connects them to the connected fields of business & economics and history. The result avoids a single easy lesson, emphasizing instead how circumstances, institutions, and individual choices interacted over time. The book ultimately clarifies what made these developments possible, who experienced their effects, and why the story remains significant. Historical context and individual experience remain equally important to the book's explanation.
