Questions:
The rise of corporations transformed the United States in the late nineteenth century. Discuss the changes and determine if the transformations were for the better or for the worse.

If someone could please help me use specific issues and topics that were important that would be nice. So far i have the Knights of Labor, and the pullman strike for evidence .

Standard Oil company and Carnegie steel were both monopolized by “big business” giants (John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie).

Also, look at the Homestead Strike that’s one of the biggest strikes in the history of the United States.
