"The Elevator: the most crucial piece of business technology since the computer." Only Robert Hughes could have put it that way....

In American history, the Gilded Age refers to the era of rapid economic and population growth in the United States during the post-Civil War and post-Reconstruction eras of the late 19th century (1865-1901).

Hmmm. I never thought of the elevator as being groundbreaking technology. I've never seen this series before. I've been watching all the episodes. Thanks.
