Ladies and Not-So-Gentle Women: Elisabeth Marbury, Anne Morgan, Elsie de Wolfe, Anne Vanderbilt, and Their Times

Four portraits of groundbreaking women--Elisabeth Marbury, Anne Morgan, Elsie de Wolfe, and Anne Vanderbilt--carry the reader from Edith Wharton's New York City to Hemingway's expatriote Paris, revealing women on the front lines of major events from two World Wars and labor disputes to the parlors of wealth and influence on two continents.
