Quotes by Greg King

“Many in America, as one social historian wrote, 'believed implicitly that New York's social leaders went to bed in full evening dress, brushed their teeth in vintage champagne, married their daughters without exception to shady French counts, and arrayed their poodle dogs in diamond tiaras.'...”
― Greg King (A Season of Splendor: The Court of Mrs. Astor in Gilded Age New York)
