About this product

Product Information

For fans of Downton Abbey, a real-life American version of the Crawley family-Fortune's Children is an enthralling true story that recreates the drama, splendor, and wealth of the legendary Vanderbilts. Vanderbilt: The very name is synonymous with the Gilded Age. The family patriarch, "the Commodore," built a fortune that made him the world's richest man by 1877. Yet, less than fifty years after his death, no Vanderbilt was counted among the world's richest people. Written by descendant Arthur T. Vanderbilt II, Fortune's Children traces the dramatic and amazingly colorful history of this great American family, from the rise of industrialist and philanthropist Cornelius Vanderbilt to the fall of his progeny-wild spendthrifts whose profligacy bankrupted a vast inheritance.

  • Vanderbilt History Comes Alive!

    Excellent written book on the history of the Vanderbilt family. The book digs in much deeper personally with each person than I anticipated. The author has gathered really good information that keeps you excited to go back to your book! I feel many times like I am there seeing through their eyes.
