Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Henry Demarest Lloyd, Vol. 1 of 2: 1847 1903, a Biography
This is to look somewhat ahead. For the time being, the practical effect of Mr. Lloyd's work was to con centrate public attention upon the growing power of the corporations, to reveal the huge evils of railroad rebates and discriminations, and to arouse a spirit of revolt that from that time to this has never ceased to grow, and will not so cease until the nation has found the one end of all this situation, the end to which Mr. Lloyd thirty years ago indicated the way.
