Book Synopsis Abby Aldrich Rockefeller: The Woman in the Family by : Bernice Kert
Download or read book Abby Aldrich Rockefeller: The Woman in the Family written by Bernice Kert and published by Plunkett Lake Press. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1894, Abby Aldrich, the outgoing, impulsive daughter of Rhode Island’s Senator Nelson Aldrich, met Brown University student John D. Rockefeller, Jr., the shy and reserved heir to the Standard Oil fortune. This unlikely pair fell in love, but only seven years later did John feel confident enough to propose. Once married, Abby used her empathy, willingness to experiment, and defiant optimism to broaden John’s way of thinking and to expand his vision of what the Rockefeller fortune could do, shaping the family into a progressive force in philanthropy, the arts, and politics. Abby cherished and protected her six children — Babs, John III, Nelson, Laurance, Winthrop, and David — and inspired in them a desire to serve society. She helped open the nation’s eyes to modern art and in 1928, initiated the foundation of New York’s Museum of Modern Art. From behind the scenes Abby helped direct the restoration of Colonial Williamsburg and the building of Rockefeller Center. “Abby Aldrich Rockefeller was a legendary figure, a woman of great wealth and power who used them for great good — in often cunning ways. Astonishingly, no one has written her story before. Now Bernice Kert has done so in a sweeping, meticulous, original biography that illuminates a rare life, an historic family, and modern America.” — Catharine R. Stimpson, University Professor, Rutgers University “Bernice Kert can raise biography to a level of insight and surprise that matches the best fiction. Witness this study of a woman we think we know all about.” — Elizabeth Janeway, author of Man’s World, Woman’s Place “Bernice Kert’s thoroughly researched biography of Abby Aldrich Rockefeller is a welcome and wonderful read. Everyone interested in art and social history will want to read about this most progressive and interesting Rockefeller.” — Blanche Wiesen Cook, author of Eleanor Roosevelt: Volume I, 1884-1933 “[Reading] this biography, the life of Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, is like reading an exciting mystery story. One can hardly wait to turn the page to find out what this extraordinary and fascinating woman did, not only for herself but for everything and everyone she touched, from her husband, to nature, to the opening of a new view into the art world. The vitality of Abby Rockefeller, as depicted here by Bernice Kert, is a lesson to all women.” — Brooke Astor “What might have been a kind of family mausoleum turns out to be a fascinating read, brimming with fresh material from unpublished archives and interviews with eyewitnesses. Bernice Kert’s thorough and engaging portrait brings to life an enormously influential American woman who had an historic impact on both her extraordinary family and the arts — as a pioneering collector and patron, and as the innovating founder of two major museums.” — J. Carter Brown, Director Emeritus, National Gallery of Art “Kert, despite all her exhaustive research, happily lets her subject retain all of her formidable vitality and independence... Kert deals not only with the couple’s marriage — which was, in spite of some strains, a lifelong love affair — and the six Rockefeller children, but also with Abby’s generous contributions to art, education, and politics, as well with as her role in creating Rockefeller Center and Colonial Williamsburg. A splendidly intelligent, very readable portrait of a woman who was as wise in the rearing of her family as in the spending of her great wealth.” — Kirkus Reviews “In this elegantly written, carefully researched and psychologically astute biography, Abby Rockefeller emerges as a loveable and intelligent woman who wielded her great privilege to a variety of socially beneficial ends.” — Publishers Weekly “Bernice Kert [has] an eye for offbeat biography... Kert’s penetrating close-up captures not only [Abby’s] remarkable personality but the suffocating nuances of post-Victorian matrimony; women readers in particular will relish Abby’s refusal to be pigeonholed.” — Ted Berkman, Los Angeles Times “A picture of a complex and engaging woman, one who was at once very much a part of her time and extraordinarily ahead of it... Although the Modern museum was at the heart of Abby Aldrich Rockefeller’s work... her interests were far ranging. They included the advancement of civil rights, historic preservation and education. The portrait of her in this book is that of a model aristocrat, a wealthy, well-bred woman who understood power and the creative, contemporary uses of the concept of noblesse oblige. Kert shows Abby Rockefeller to have been, in her way, very much a feminist.” — Robert Duffy, St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Book Synopsis Families of Warriors and Conquerors: Generations of Confidence and Success - The Aldrich and Burton Family Genealogy with Related Lines - 747 A.D. to by : Lovell Weld Aldrich
Download or read book Families of Warriors and Conquerors: Generations of Confidence and Success - The Aldrich and Burton Family Genealogy with Related Lines - 747 A.D. to written by Lovell Weld Aldrich and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-24 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Aldrich - Burton Genealogy This history, with stories of the Aldrich and Burton families, begins with the birth of Charlemagne in 747 A.D. and covers 1266 years! This story of the author's family lines, both male and female, takes the reader through early European, Scandinavian, French, English, and all periods of American history. The first ancestor described, Charlemagne, became the Holy Roman Emperor and his actions effectively began the Middle Ages. You will learn of a Viking king who entered France as a warrior, took over Normandy, and whose descendant, William, conquered England and changed the face of Europe. From the descendants of English kings, commoners, and other Europeans, these families made America the best of all lands. This is a story of what early arrivals to America and their descendants accomplished as immigrants, warriors, and leaders in their communities. This genealogy tells stories of warriors in the author's family from the Middle Ages, through the Revolutionary War, and into the 20th Century. The mystery of an unknown family, due to the early death of his parents, inspired the author to begin his many decades search for ancestors. Even though answers were difficult to uncover, this lawyer/author never gave up the search, no matter how many doors were shut. From a chance finding of the George Aldrich Genealogy, the author found that his family arrived in American in 1631. The names found included the wives of the Aldriches, giving him other ancestors from which great stories came to light. His direct Burton lines, developed by a cousin, showed him a long line of Virginia planters, but the families that married those Burtons also had an extremely interesting history in America. You will read of many early Americans in the families that fought the British to free America from the tyranny of the English monarch. From a young family member, in his Aldrich line, who fought with George Washington, also a distant cousin of the author, you will learn of perils in fighting the Revolution and one big reason for the Revolution's success. You will discover from family stories how the rugged individualism of the various families expanded America westward as family members traveled to find their place to live free. You will also find that most of the Aldrich families of New Englanders were satisfied with their lot in life and stayed put in New England. In the early 1800's tobacco was no longer a major export and his named Burton ancestors and other family members started a slow move westward. The named Burton family members arrived in Texas in the late 1800's.
Book Synopsis The Astor Orphan by : Alexandra Aldrich
Download or read book The Astor Orphan written by Alexandra Aldrich and published by Ecco. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Astor Orphan is an unflinching debut memoir by a direct descendant of John Jacob Astor, Alexandra Aldrich. She brilliantly tells the story of her eccentric, fractured family; her 1980s childhood of bohemian neglect in the squalid attic of Rokeby, the family’s Hudson Valley Mansion; and her brave escape from the clan. Aldrich reaches back to the Gilded Age when the Astor legacy began to come undone, leaving the Aldrich branch of the family penniless and squabbling over what was left. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs that bring this faded world into focus, The Astor Orphan is written with the grit of The Glass Castle and set amid the aristocratic decay of Grey Gardens.
