Abstract:
Rogers recounts the lives of brothers Caesar and Moses Cone, who were industrialists and philanthropists. Following successful business ventures in other sections of the country, the brothers opened a textile mill in Greensboro in the late 1890s that within a decade grew to be the largest cotton mill in the South and the largest denim manufacturing mill in the world. The family was the benefactor of Moses Cone Hospital.
