Histórias (quase) contemporâneas e ótimas.
Ótimo para quem gosta de História, ótimo para quem quer conhecer os usos e costumes de uma parte da sociedade americana muito rica e famosa.

Wealthy families aren't necessarily happy!!
I love biographies about people. This is a really good one. It was written by Anderson Cooper, the son of Gloria Vanderbilt so that he could leave the legacy of family for his two sons. All families should do the same so that history is not lost!!

It’s dark and gothic
It leans more into the fall, the darkness. I couldn’t finish it. I’m not looking for inspiration on how to fall. I’m looking for inspiration on how to rise. It didn’t speak to me

Brilliant!
This writing team have produced the best, most interesting and most human of the books that I have read about the super-rich American families of the 19th century. Mr Cooper's family insight is invaluable. A must for anyone interested in this period.
