Matt Crawford speaks with author Daniel Schulman about his book, The Money Kings: The Epic Story of the Jewish Immigrants Who Transformed Wall Street and Shaped Modern America. We all know the names, Golman, Sachs, Lehman, Kuhn & Loeb, maybe not so much Seligman and Schiff. Schulman takes us back to the start of what would become our modern financial system to the immigration of Joseph Seligman in 1827, with the equivalent of $100 sewed into his pants. Enter Jacob Schiff and thing really get interesting. This sweeping narrative chronicles the interconnected origin stories of these families, how they navigated the Civil War, financial crashes, WWI and a deep rooted antisemitic upper class that was steeped in all corners of society. A deeply engrossing and phenomenal read.
