Andrew Carnegie (Though not religious himself, Carnegie adored the hymnody of his youth, and provided some 7,500 organs, free of charge, to congregations around the world.) By the time he died in 1919, he is believed to have given away over $350 million. Carnegie is best known for the nearly 3,000 public libraries he helped build. As a young man in Allegheny City, Carnegie spent most of his evenings at the library of Col. James Anderson, a prosperous local businessman who gave working boys free access to his 1,500-volume library. It was clearly a formative experience, and one which he hoped might be of similar benefit to others.
