Using fresh, unpublished source materials-including Purdue's personal correspondence, business ledgers, and the family oral histories-the author examines Purdue's beginning among illiterate, immigrant, Pennsylvania mountain-hollow folks. Uncle challenges a commonly held belief that Purdue was a cold-hearted business mogul. Instead the author shows Purdue as a human being and as a generous family man with a visionary nature.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Weight: 440gAuthor: Irena McCammon ScottGenre: BiographyBook Series: Founders SeriesItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmTopic: Business & FinanceRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
