Description:

It's the Downtown Abbey story: American lady has cash and glamour, English gent has prestige and status. This is a faithful facsimile of a fascinating book from the Gilded Age that offered a glance guide to recent high society marriages and a list of eligible bachelors who were still on the lookout for love. The trend for well-heeled European gents selecting American wives is explored, and there is an explanation of the various titled families of Europe and the relative merits of attaching oneself to an American or an English girl ("the American girl comes along, prettier than her English sister, dazzling and audacious, and she is a revelation to the Englishman").
