Silk Top Hats in the 1880s

Dimitri and Khalid wrap up their coverage of Gustavus Myers’ “History of the Great American Fortunes, Volume II” with the infamous blood-and-fraud-soaked career of robber baron Jay Gould, including: conning his way into the railroad game, boldly defrauding Cornelius Vanderbilt himself, his scandalous conspiracy to corner the entire gold market with cronies Fisk and B*lden in 1869, and his eventual defrauding at the hands of the charismatic Scottish con artist “Lord Gordon Gordon”.
