Misfortunes of Wealth
"wonderfully structured and written, a gripping work of social history. That it also has the narrative drive of a novel and is so psychologically acute is stunning. I was utterly absorbed while reading it and have been haunted by it since."
-Beth Gutcheon,
author of Good-bye and Amen, and Leeway Cottage
"A beautifully written and moving work. Put in a generational and social context it sensitively portrays one family’s experience and something revealing and moving about American society. It is really magnifcent. I truly couldn't put it down."
-Ronald Steel,
author of Walter Lippmann and the American Century
