Ten Days at Jekyll Island: The biggest bank heist ever
In November of 1910, a number of the most prominent bankers and politicians were invited to a private rail car in New Jersey . They were told to come at night, separately and not to acknowledge each other.
Who was the man who invited them for a clandestine meeting to be held at the private island millionaires retreat, on Jekyll Island? Why would fiercely competitive bankers and politicians be boarding one by one, onto a private rail car, so as to not be seen together?
Why all this secrecy? Why would they go? By the likes and power of these men, they knew it was big! What was in it for them? What was the meeting about? What would it accomplish? Was it dangerous? Why were they chosen? What were they being asked to do ? Why was this meeting so covert that it had to held so far away from prying eyes at a remote destination?
The pages herein so eloquently take us inside the most important meeting of all time.
