{"product_id":"edith-whartons-lenox-cornelia-brooke-gilder-9781540216571","title":"Edith Wharton's Lenox","description":"In 1900, Edith Wharton burst into the settled summer colony of Lenox. An aspiring novelist in her thirties, she was already a ferocious aesthete and intellect. She and her husband, Teddy, planned a defiantly classical villa, and she became a bestselling author with The House of Mirth in 1905. As a hostess, designer, gardener and writer, Wharton set high standards that delighted many, including Ambassador Joseph Choate and sculptor Daniel Chester French. But her perceptive and sometimes indiscreet pen also alienated potent figures like Emily Vanderbilt Sloane and Georgiana Welles Sargent. Author Cornelia Brooke Gilder gives an insider's glimpse of the community's reaction to this disruptive star during her tumultuous Lenox decade.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cornelia Brooke Gilder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540216578\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540216571\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Cornelia Brooke Gilder","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43995754529023,"sku":"9781540216571","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_437450c6-1c2d-439f-a73c-bab8ab732c6e.jpg?v=1683337652","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/edith-whartons-lenox-cornelia-brooke-gilder-9781540216571","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
