Jacob argues that the capital's social elite has always been unique because its fortunes~unlike those of aristocrats who ruled other American cities~are tied inextricably to the ubiquitous presence of the federal government. Capital Elites identifies three distinct, often hostile, aristocracies that competed for prominence throughout the second half of the nineteenth century. Documenting extravagant events and outrageous deeds rivaling today's tabloid hyperbole, Jacob examines the clash between the District's old Southern and Democratic residential elite and "official society," those elected or appointed figures ~ mostly Northern and Republican ~ who expected recognition regardless of pedigree, liquidity, or gentility. Jacob shows how the evolving institutions of a central government shaped every aspect of social life. Rules of protocol were ironclad: a deviation might not be a mere faux pas but the cause of an affair of state. Compounding these complex and often vitriolic social interactions was the arrival of a third elite, the nouveau riche. Jacob shows how the Civil War affected Washington like no other city, vanquishing the hereditary elite ~ the Antiques ~ and opening the gates to new millionaires ~ the Parvenues ~ who shaped the postwar society of the capital as they shifted its center from Lafayette Square to Dupont Circle. With plentiful detail about selfish First Ladies, bitter bluebloods, greedy lobbyists, and cabinet ministers who accepted bribes to support their families' social ambitions, Capital Elites describes the magnetic attraction of political power and the ways in which moneyed society affected the conduct of government during the Gilded Age.…
