Understanding Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie may be the best-known name in Pittsburgh’s history, but the man and his legacy defy easy description. That is partly by design: Carnegie worked hard to define his legacy and control its complexities. Who was he, really? The immigrant workingman or the fabulously wealthy and successful industrialist? The merciless driver of workers or the builder of libraries? This course will explore the many Carnegies and the meaning of this complex individual’s life and work.
