Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth exploration of lavish American mansions built by the industrial elite during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The author argues that these opulent residences were the result of newly acquired wealth combined with a uniquely American attitude toward social mobility. Rather than being manifestations of a landed aristocracy, these mansions were expressions of the "palatial" tastes of self-made millionaires, who sought to display their economic and social power. The book places these residences within the context of the Industrial Revolution, which created a class of wealthy Americans with unprecedented economic influence. The author examines the ways in which these individuals used their fortunes to build homes that reflected their aspirations and societal standing. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the architectural styles, interior design, and social significance of these mansions. It draws on extensive research and features numerous illustrations, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of this unique aspect of American architectural history and its enduring influence on the nation's social landscape. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781330209325_0
