"From Cornelius Vanderbilt to Andrew Carnegie, Henry Ford, and J.P. Rockefeller, a series of industrial titans emerged in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries, who almost single-handedly laid the foundations for the America that we now know and love. This ambitious documentary from cable's History Channel profiles a number of the said men. Episodes include: Oil Strike, Blood is Spilled, A New Rival Emerges, Owning it All, Taking the White House, A New War Begins, The New Machine and A Rivalry is Born, plus a number of bonus segments unaired on American television."
