The correct answer is A) Sir Walter Raleigh.
Sir Walter Raleigh was sent by Queen Elizabeth on three expeditions to the New World.
To do this task, Queen Elizabeth had one man and only one man: Sir Walter Raleigh (1552-1618). He had met Elizabeth when he was in the military and had a good relationship with the queen. In 1585, this explorer was named the captain of the Guard and received the order to explore new territories. So he planed and directed three important expeditions to the North American territory. Later in his life, he had problems with the Queen and was sent to prison.
John D. Rockefeller went into business when he was 20, and he picked up his first oil well as a sideline. He soon saw that that was the right horse to ride. Even before automobiles and airplanes laid their heavy claim on oil, it'd begun replacing coal in the power industries.
Andrew Carnegie makes the better hero. He, after all, was part and parcel of the emerging technologies that made our country. And his giving sprang from some deep-seated core of principle. Yet the Rockefeller clan assumed the mantle of public service. They've become political leaders and professional givers -- one died doing anthropological research in New Guinea.
