Jay Cooke (1821-1905)
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page paper. Jay Cooke is generally credited as being the "first major investment banker, creator of the first "wire house," and the Financier of the Civil War (Trumbore 2000). Had it not been for Cooke, the Union would have had a far more difficult time financing the war. This essay talks about Jay Cooke, the man, and Jay Cooke, the financier. His training was early and at age 18, he began work with a major trading company. This paper reports and discusses Cooke's entrance into banking and finance, his innovative marketing campaign that resulted in selling war bonds to the public instead of only to wealthy bankers, his door-to-door and other campaigns, his venture in the railroad and finally, the collapse of his company. It was the failure of Cooke's company that set off the panic of 1873. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Jeff Shaara's "The Last Full Measure"
[ send me this paper ]

The writer discusses this mantra as it relates to the leadership abilities of Grant and Lee during the Civil War. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Jefferson & Contradictions
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page research paper/essay that examines the contradictory nature of Thomas Jefferson's legacy. Jefferson, American Founding Father who penned some of the most inspirational words ever written regarding principles of liberty and freedom in the Declaration of Independence, was also a Southern slave-owner, who failed to address the dichotomies of the Constitution in regards to equality for everyone, including women. These facts are contradictory and modern historians and commentators have sought to reconcile them. One way in which this can be done is to conceptualize Jefferson as the embodiment of a quintessential American trait, which is to be contradictory in deeply-held beliefs. Examination of this trait stems from the fact that American policy, since Jefferson, has operated on two distinctly different levels: the first being the level of ideals and the second being the level of politics. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
