Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A full century before Martha Stewart, Oprah, and Madonna became icons of female entrepreneurship, there was Hetty Green, Americas richest woman, who stood alone among the roguish giants of the Gilded Age as the first lady of capitalism with a personal fortune estimated at $100 million ($1.6 billion today). In Hetty, Charles Slack reexamines the life, work, and conflicted legacy of this true American original. While derided as a witch of Wall Street in her lifetime, today, Hetty ranks near the top of Americas list of greatest financiers: a brilliant, ruthless entrepreneur, vastly ahead of her time, know simply as Hetty. Slack looks beyond the lore and historical prejudices to reveal the real Hetty Green, known as the "Witch of Wall Street," who dueled with the giants of the Gilded Age and amassed a fortune of $100 million before women had the right to vote.
