Captain

The American business giants of the Gilded Age were captains of industry.

Captain America: Our Dream Hero World War II had just begun, but the US hadn’t officially joined as yet. However, it was a popular topic that was followed with great interest. The actions of the Nazis and Axis powers went against everything that made America what it was, and there was a lot of rallying citizens to help with the war effort.

The Captains of Industry, to some, are considered amongst the first men to “build” the America we live in today. In my opinion, that is exactly what they are. Rockefeller, Vanderbilt, Carnegie, and J.P. Morgan were innovators, but above all they were businessmen.

What most people don’t see is that what they did played an enormous role in…

gone through this traumatic experience and conveyed their feelings through writing.

The main theme of both poems is similar to one another with regards to the techniques used, the structure,…

Captain Philips Captain Philips shows great bravery throughout the movie “Captain Philips”.

Throughout the movie Captain Philips, also know as Tom Hanks, faced many obstacles. For example, some of the obstacles Captain Philips and his…
