How The Rockefellers Built Their Empire

The Rockefeller family is among the most famous and notorious families on earth, and there is a good reason for that. Arguable one of the most powerful business dynasties, it all goes back to one man. John D Rockefeller was born into poverty. His father was a small time criminal known to swindle others. But young John would eventually die the most wealthy American ever. This is the story of how the Rockefellers built their enormous wealth and used said wealth as a spring board into the world of politics.

It's a family that rode the wave of America's industrialization better than any other. Making an initial fortune in the oil boom by building standard oil into a monopoly. Then transitioning to finance and more modern industries when their monopoly was broken up. Today they hold influence in American politics and banking and are as well known as the Rothschild family or any other family.
