Description
Romney is the best fictional portrayal of "Gilded Age" Philadelphia, brilliantly capturing Wister's vision of old-money, aristocratic society gasping its last before the onrushing vulgarity of the nouveaux riches. Published for the first time, is the complete fragment of Romney together with two of his other unpublished Philadelphia works.
