Path to Success

“Stories of Briarcliff,” Episode 3: Law’s Path to Success

Walter Law arrived in America as a young man with two weeks’ worth of money in his pocket. And yet within several decades, he’d entirely transformed two carpet businesses, leading them to nationwide success and incurring a substantial fortune (alongside the goodwill of many people) in the process. This episode will trace Law’s “rags-to-riches” story in the US, taking us to his retirement in the late 1800s.
