Sisters of Fortune: America's Caton Sisters at Home and Abroad | Jehanne Wake

pick

Totoro had some fancy gems while reading Sisters of Fortune, a biography about the Caton sisters. They were smart, money savvy, close, and even managed to become part of the British aristocracy, long before the era of the American 'Dollar Princess'. The style is a little formal, but it's still easy to read and extremely interesting.
