Lasting Legacy to the Carolinas: The Duke Endowment, 1924-1994

by Robert F. Durden

Like the majority of the founders of large philanthropic foundations in the United States, James B. Duke assumed that the Duke Endowment, which he established in 1924, would continue its charitable activity forever. Lasting Legacy to the Carolinas is an examination of the history of this foundation and the ways in which it has -- and has not -- followed Duke's original design.
