Ever wonder what how the story of Romeo and Juliet might have played out had instead of dying, they defied their families and eloped? If this engrossing memoir is any indication, happily ever after might have proved elusive. The Romeo here is Cornelius “Neily” Vanderbilt (a great grandson and the heir-apparent of the legendary Commodore). His star-crossed lover is the beautiful and gregarious Grace Wilson. They married against the wishes of his parents—a mystery since Grace was from a charming but respectable family (albeit with a reputation for social climbing). Partially disinherited, Neily and Grace still manage to live lavishly, and Grace, through sheer force of will, gradually became the Mrs. Vanderbilt of her generation. With mid-20th Century hindsight, their son, Cornelius, Jr., fascinatingly relates this Gilded Age story. Relying memory, personal records and family archives, he makes the case that his Vanderbilt grandparents were correct; Grace and Cornelius were not well suited. This English edition has a catchier title than its American counterpart and the better dust jacket illustration, featuring the massive malachite vase at 634 Fifth Avenue, the vast Vanderbilt chateau, which Neily and Grace inherited despite their ostracism (courtesy of an irrevocable trust). The author is their son, who became a journalist and author.

Great little jewelry box!
Size: Medium (6.8"W*4.4"D*2.2"H), Color: Beige
Great little jewelry box for quick vacations! Lots of compartments so my jewelry doesn't get lost or tangled! Love the pouch for bracelets, the hooks for my necklaces, the little board with holes for my earrings and the slots for my rings. Made really well and pretty also! Would make a Nice gift!

Necessary for travel
Size: Medium (6.8"W*4.4"D*2.2"H), Color: Purple
This is really cute and looks classy. Quality is very nice. The only thing is the hooks for the necklaces didn’t keep them on, but everything else about this is a must for traveling and not losing or tangling up your jewelry.

LOVE IT!
Size: Large (8.2"W*4.2"D*2.4"H), Color: Beige
I love it. It’s very pretty and simple, in a good way. I plan to use it for all my jewelry and not just for travel. I like that it has a lot of hooks for necklaces and plenty of space for earring and rings. The fabric inside and out seem to be good quality. It’s well made and zips easily. The structure is sturdy as well. The color (white) is just as depicted. I think I got the larger size but it doesn’t feel bulky at all. I like that it comes with an extra pouch for bulkier items. It’s one of the best jewelry boxes I’ve had!

Nice little travel solution for jewelry
Size: Medium (6.8"W*4.4"D*2.2"H), Color: Pink
Cute travel box for my jewelry. The necklace hangers aren’t all that snug, causing my necklaces to fall and tangle some. But otherwise, works as expected.
