"The Gilded Leaf is typical of books written about Old Money families. They all follow the same arc: genius founds business and makes fortune then his nitwit heirs blow it all . The scribner himself is of the fourth generation and is left wondering what went so awfully wrong. This is probably of greatest interest to people in the NC region."
