The Gilded Age

The United States changed dramatically after the Civil War. The war-torn nation became one of the world’s economic superpowers. Starting in the late 1800s, fewer and fewer people earned their living by farming and more and more people worked in industry. At the same time, enormous wealth ended up in the hands of a few powerful people. Mark Twain called this era the “Gilded Age.” Between 1870 and 1910, millionaires like John D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, and J. Pierpont Morgan acquired control of many industries. To the consternation of other citizens, these men exerted great influence over the U.S. government. These wealthy men wanted to have free access to public land, have their businesses protected from foreign competition, and be free from government regulation.

These powerful men had many ways of achieving their goals. One thing they did was use their wealth and influence to form monopolies and trusts. A monopoly forms when one company controls a certain industry. A trust forms when several different corporations have a secret agreement to work together. Companies involved in trusts have devious plans to ruin other companies in the same industry. During the Gilded Age, monopolies and trusts controlled the steel and oil industries. They also controlled the railroads. Ruthless industrialists ran their businesses any way they liked, and they did not care who got hurt. The trusts provided the men who controlled them with huge fortunes and lavish lifestyles. This contrasted sharply with the plight of many average Americans.

Bribery was another method of control that was often used during the Gilded Age. In 1872, the Union Pacific Railroad trust made a blatant attempt to bribe the government by selling company stock to several lawmakers for much less than it was actually worth. This bribe was meant to stop the government from taking a close look at negligent building methods. Also in the 1870s, the Southern Pacific Railroad used bribery to maintain a firm grip on California. Senators, judges, and other politicians capitulated to the railroad’s power. Southern Pacific held this control until 1911. Another way that businesses worked to get what they wanted was by having their salesmen work for political parties.

At the end of the 1800s, J.P. Morgan bought out Andrew Carnegie and founded

In Books 9-12, students begin by using their knowledge of words’ definitions to identify correct statements or change false statements to make them true – an open-ended exercise that serves as a great discussion starter.
