Originalbroschur. Condition: Gut. XIX, 330 S. Einband leicht berieben und lichtspurig. - Carole Klein's study of Gramercy Park is cast with luminary, visionary, and innovative souls who contributed to the mystique of the Big City from the early neighborhood years of 1820 to 1940. Washington Irving, Stephen Crane, O. Henry, Mark Twain, Henry James, Edith Wharton - the list of Gramercy Park residents over the years is a catalog of achievement and dedication in American arts and culture. Cyrus Field planned the laying of the Atlantic telegraph cable in Gramercy Park; Peter Cooper designed his free university and invented a new steam engine here. Gramercy Park is the home of the Players' Club for actors, originally the residence of Edwin Booth, brother of Lincoln's assassin, and the National Arts Club, once a major gathering place for America's leading arts patrons Morgan, Frick, and Bache. Among its celebrated artists were Robert Henri, Daniel Chester French, Cecilia Beaux, and Augustus Saint- Gaudens. An invitation to the Gramercy Park salon of Elsie De Wolfe, America's first interior designer, and her lover Bessie Marbury (Oscar Wilde's American agent), was one of the most coveted of the town.
