This is a history of wealth full of interesting people and details, not just a book about money. The book is full of mostly black & white imagery, but also a few colour throughout. Hetty the worlds richest woman, crown jewels of Iran, Irenee du Pont in 1957 with a pet iguana, a garden of clipped bushes in the shape on animals, Edith Kingdon, photos of Newport life, Mrs Vanderbilts ball in 1883 and many more. Truly a lot of riches within.
