		When Morgan died, in 1913, the Civil War had been fought, the country of farmers had become a nation of urban workers, swelling industries had created millionaires and forever altered the landscape, and the United States had seized the dominant place on the international stage that it still occupies.
		Junius intended his son for the banking business, and while duty prevailed, it was apparent from the beginning that young Pierpont had a gift for finance that exceeded his father's.
		Junius oversaw his son's apprenticeship, matching him with older, more experienced partners, and while Pierpont learned from them he was quick to see that America was headed in new directions.

		J.P. Morgan was no self-made man. Both sides of his family were well-established, with roots that extended back to colonial America, and the Morgans were already rich by the mid-1800s.
		In the defining event of his career, Morgan responded in 1895 to what Strouse calls ''an international run on the Treasury,'' which was brought on by the populist farmers' political campaign against the gold standard.
		Moreover, while even colleagues found Morgan to be a foreboding, self-absorbed tyrant, he repeatedly took on the role of savior, both toward personal acquaintances and on the global economic stage.
