Glamorous, cultured, and ambitious -- but fatally young and nai ve -- James Hazen Hyde was twenty-three when he inherited the majority shares in the billion-dollar Equitable Life Assurance Society in 1899. Five years later, at the pinnacle of social and financial success, he made a fatal miscalculation, and set in motion the first great Wall Street scandal of the twentieth century.

On the last night of January 1905, Hyde gave one of the most fabulous balls of the Gilded Age. Falsely accused of charging the party to his company, he was sucked into a maelstrom of allegations of corporate malfeasance that involved the era's most fam

After The Ball by Patricia Beard Book Review

Name: shazam
Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars
Title: Pujo:Please Mr Morgan,limit your comments to the bonds of the Equitable!
Date: Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2016
Review: Let me start by saying that this book is not as easy to read as Buley's book on the Equitable.That's me.You might not feel the same reading this book.Most of the numbers are a blur.James party does answer the deficiency of Bradley Martin's party.The men?They live upstairs at Sherry's.This point gets lost when you consider that the assets of the Equitable far outweigh Henry and James wishes as to it's future.Somebody's obviously using JWA as a crowbar and he doesn't withstand the strain.Henry's dead though.What about James? Well, James won't cooperate.He doesn't drive his horses near water or trains.He actually knows how to handle them.If he didn't,he wouldn't be buried in a potter's field either.Church isn't practical either.Sunday School at 10AM and Sermon at 11AM.No,the party doesn't let out till 4 or 5AM-7AM for the final breakfast for those still hungry.This was all really blown out of proportion when you consider the costs for bringing the people together for the International Actuarial Congress in 1903 would of been about $50,000 for 5,000 people including steamships and lodgingJames knows more than he lets on.He's honouring his father by living his life the way he wants to.He trains his child Henry and,yes,it suits him fine and dandy to join up with OSS.John Pierpont Morgan does get control of The Equitable,but not for long. The French own it now.Both Henry and James are honoured in this way.I should note that James Hazen Hyde was interviewed by R. Carlyle Buley on May 7 and December 6,1955,some fifty years later.He said:"I got too much power when I was too young...It went a little to my head...It's an evil world...What fools we mortals be."Yes,he did antagonize some powerful businessmen.His father didn't prepare him for their reaction.He could only fall back on his equity interest.He would of made vast amounts of money if he stayed in this business. In accordance with his father's will,he would have been untouchable by the time he reached the age of thirty. Instead,he was disgusted with America.Everybody loses with those stakes.Finally,James dies on July 26,1959;100 years to the day when his father founded this company.If this consumed him,it should certainly be considered an honour.

Title: The Downfall of a Child of Fortune
Date: Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2005
Review: "After the Fall," Patricia Beard's clear-eyed look into the excesses at the tag end of the Gilded Age, focuses around a costume party thrown in 1905 by then 23-year-old James Hazen Hyde, who was expected to accede to the presidecy of the Equitable Life Insurance Company when he turned thirty.

It never happened. Instead his enemies, in the company and outside it, used the ball as an excuse to start a power play that would bring him down. As sometimes happens, however, they brought themselves down as well.

The book is almost like a musical comedy in structure. The title is somewhat misleading as the ball itself comes in the middle of the book (imagine the ball as the big production number that brings the curtain down on act one). It begins with James's father, Henry, skips quickly through James's adolescence and early manhood (there'll be a production number having to do with James's hobby, racing horsedrawn carriages), the premature death of his father, and his rise to the first vice presidency of the insurance company, where, or so his father had hoped, he would be tutored by the interim president, James W. Alexander, who was nearing retirement age.

When the curtain rises on act 2, you will encounter an array of schemers, some driven almost batty as they struggle for power, and a parade of the gilded age financiers, J. P. Morgan, E. H. Harriman, Henry Clay Frick, and James Fortune Ryan, as well as President Theodore Roosevelt, ex-President Grover Cleveland, and Charles Evans Hughes, who would some day be, thanks largely to his investigation of the scandal, Chief Justice of the United States.

You'll maybe hear patter songs in your head as the robber barons form committees, make deals, break deals, and leak their doings to the press, as they scheme to acquire the faltering company for themselves.

And when the curtain comes down on the tale as the chastened but hardly impoverished Hyde leaves for France--saying his goodbyes aboard the ship that's about to sail perhaps--it comes down, as well, on the Gilded Age itself.

Notes and asides: The afterword, about Hyde's later life and that of his son, who was in the OSS during WWII should not be skipped.

Title: Superb
Date: Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2006
Review: Well-written, interesting and sheds new light on a long-forgotten subject. The author has the gift of understanding and writing well about both Gilded Age high society and finance, and uses her gift to good advantage. Occasionally the inner manueverings in the Equitable drag a bit, but this is a hardly noticeable defect. Five stars +; buy and and read it with enjoyment.
