Description	The House of Morgan: An American Banking Dynasty and the Rise of Modern Finance is a non-fiction book by Ron Chernow, published in 1990. It traces the history of four generations of the J.P. Morgan financial empire, on both sides of the Atlantic, from its obscure beginnings in Victorian London to the crash of 1987.The reviewer for the New York Times Book Review said, "As a portrait of finance, politics and the world of avarice and ambition on Wall Street, the book has the movement and tension of an epic novel. It is, quite simply, a tour de force."Jeffrey E. Garten, "Their Street Was Paved With Gold," New York Times March 18, 1990Chernow later completed a history of the German-Jewish Warburg banking family (The Warburgs, 1993) and a collection of the essays on "the decline and fall of the great financial dynasties", (The Death of the Banker, 1997).An earlier book, titled The House of Morgan was written by Edwin P. Hoyt, Jr. and published by Dodd, Mead & Company in 1966.Library of Congress Catalog Card No. (LCCN) 66024266. This book, based largely on the 1930 work The House of Morgan, A Social Biography of the Masters of Money by Lewis Corey and the 1939 work of Herbert L. Satterlee titled J. Pierpont Morgan: An Intimate Portrait is considered to be marred by factual errors and an often overly partisan perspective.
