The Gilded Age in New York captures what is was like to live in Gotham from 1870 to 1910, to be a daily witness to the city's rapid evolution—from the drama to the expansion to the mansions and wealth. "Vividly captures the transformation from cityscape of horse carriages and gas lamps 'bursting with beauty, power and possibilities' as it staggered into a skyscraping Imperial City." —Sam Roberts, The New York Times |
