Kommentare zu: Andrew Carnegie’s decision to help library construction developed out of his own experience. Born in 1835, he spent his first 12 years inside the coastal town of Dunfermline, Scotland. There he heard men read aloud and discuss books borrowed on the Tradesmen’s Subscription Library that his father, a weaver, had helped create. Carnegie began his formal education at age eight, but must stop after only 36 months. The rapid industrialization in the textile trade forced small businessmen like Carnegie’s father due to business. As a result, the household sold their belongings and immigrated to Allegheny, a suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
