The title touches on one of the great mysteries about the woman in the book

This book helped me look into the life of a rich eccemyyric woman. It was well researched and well written. Plus one of the mansions is in my home town

Thought Provoking about what to do with your wealth, rich or poor

I like the book so much I bought 4 copies for friends and recommended it to others. There were lots of good questions, that came up as I read it, that I'm still contiemplating the answers. Definitely thought provoking and really interesting :-)Read full review

Awesome

Expertly researched and compiled in an easy to read format. Chapters are short so I was able to take breaks without feeling like I had pages to go until I can stop. The story is engaging and mysterious. I am saddened that the father (AW Clark) is treated as historically insignificant. Before reading this book I knew nothing of this man, who by all accounts was a fair businessman, helped people get rich and was generally liked. He was a one term senator plagued by scandal for trying to "buy" his election --- that never happens. That is the entirety of his character flaws. I'm still reading the book so this is an interim review.Read full review

A very entertaining story!

I found this to be a very good, not great, read. The book was a superb introduction to individuals who, for myself, were obscure figures. Well researched and documented. Well worth my time and investment.Read full review
