Atlas Shrugged

Atlas shrugged

Francisco d'Anconia, heir of the d'Anconia Copper Mining empire, has developed a reputation as a playboy and a dilettante. Itemize the events in his early years with Dagny and James Taggart that are contradictory to that image.

Francisco worked secretly for Taggart Transcontinental and played the stock market while he was a student to raise money for his first business purchase. He attended Patrick Henry University and often talked to Dagny about the value of work. None of what is learned of him as a youth matches up to his present reputation and public image.
