Consuelo and Alva Vanderbilt: The Story of a Daughter and a Mother in the Gilded Age (P.S.)

Consuelo and Alva Vanderbilt: The Story of a Daughter and a Mother in the Gilded Age (P.S.) - Amanda Mackenzie Stuart I ended up returning this after flogging through about 3/4 of it. this book wasn't bad, but it wasn't very interesting either. it just kind of plodded along. I learned some interesting things about the idleness of wealthy women in the US vs their English counterparts who did a lot of charity work but that's about it.
