Published to critical acclaim twenty years ago, and now considered a classic, The House of Morgan is the most ambitious history ever written about American finance. It is a rich, panoramic story of four generations of Morgans and the powerful, secretive firms they spawned, ones that would transform the modern financial world. Tracing the trajectory of J. P. Morgan's empire from its obscure beginnings in Victorian London to the financial crisis of 1987, acclaimed author Ron Chernow paints a fascinating portrait of the family's private saga and the rarefied world of the American and British elite in which they moved--a world that included Charles Lindbergh, Henry Ford, Franklin Roosevelt, Nancy Astor, and Winston Churchill. A masterpiece of financial history--it was awarded the 1990 National Book Award for Nonfiction and selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 Best Nonfiction Books of the Twentieth Century--The House of Morgan is a compelling account of a remarkable institution and the men who ran it, and an essential book for understanding the money and power behind the major historical events of the last 150 years.

A nice sized wallet for front pocket keeping, holds the essentials & more quite well
Size: One Size, Color: Brown (Money Clip) 2
I like that I can keep cash, credit cards, ID and ATM cards all safely secured in this combo wallet/money clip that fits nicely in a back or front pants pocket (I keep mine in my front pocket). I've gotten this brand/style before, probably 6-8 years ago and it's the only wallet I'll use. I needed to replace mine as the spring metal clip does eventually wear through the leather at the rounded end of the money clip, but mine still functions just fine (I just wanted a new one for the holidays!) A well-made wallet and one I'll keep using and getting as long as I can find them.

Supple leather with a compact design.
Size: One Size, Color: Black II (Money Clip), Size: One Size, Color: Black II (Money Clip)
This is exactly what I was looking for and the price??? Unbelievably low. I saw a Carhartt one that I liked, but I didn’t care for the waxy look of leather on it so I looked on their website and they only offered it in that. I searched front pocket wallet on Amazon and I purchased this. It is a higher-quality leather, the price tag inside says $55. I paid under $18. The one thing I did like about the Carhartt one, it had a magnetic strap for the cash where as this one has a fixed money clip, but I see no problems with the design. Very minimalist design.

Second Best Bifold I’ve Owned
Color: Black
I’ve gone through a lot of wallets over the years (cheap ones, expensive ones, slim cardholders, you name it), and this Timberland bifold with the attached flip pocket is easily the best all-around wallet I’ve ever carried. The leather is excellent: full-grain, soft right out of the box, and it’s aged beautifully in just a few months with a rich patina that actually looks better with every scratch and scuff. Build quality is top-notch: tight, even stitching, no loose threads, and the edges are finished cleanly. Four months of daily front-pocket carry and it still looks practically new. Layout is perfect for me. Six card slots plus the two slip pockets behind them handle everything I need (10 cards + a few folded bills) without getting bulky. The attached flip ID window is a game-changer; I keep my driver’s license and work badge there and can show either in seconds without opening the wallet. Cash fits easily in the full-length bill compartment. It’s genuinely slim for a traditional leather bifold, sits comfortably in both front and back pockets, and never feels like a brick. The embossed Timberland logo is subtle and classy. At this point I can’t imagine switching to anything else. It’s durable, functional, looks sharp, and was a fraction of the price of some “luxury” wallets that didn’t last half as long. If you want a classic leather bifold that actually delivers, this is it. 100% recommended; already planning to buy another as a backup.
