Newport's Mansions
One of them was built without wood, and the other lacked doorknobs, but they flaunted all the amenities that Old World skills, Vanderbilt money, and the unbridled taste of Richard M. Hunt could provide. Here, in this essay by journalist and historian Mary Cable, is the story of Newport's Marble Cottages.

The book was interesting to read but I was very disappointed that it didn't show any pictures of the beautiful Mansions.I have been to New Port and toured 2/3 of the Mansions and I feel the book would have been more enjoyable if others could view them as they were named by the author.

This book gave you a glimpse of Newport's mansions but stuck to Giided Age Facts. Interesting, I thought I would learn more. Maybe you will feel differently. Enjoy!
