Fifth Avenue: A Very Social History

 

“Fifth Avenue, A Very Social History,” by Kate Simon, is one of my favorite books. It not only delves into the opulent Gilded Age mansions of Fifth Avenue but also weaves captivating stories about the people who inhabited them. For more information about this 1978 book, you can visit the following link HERE.  While it’s readily available on Amazon in various price ranges, you can also find it online at other used bookstores, eBay, or your local library.
