Abstract

Who were the everyday Americans of the Gilded Age? Where did they come from? What did they do for work and fun? In this richly illustrated presentation, held in the Great Hall of The Breakers, Nancy Unger discusses the lives of the men, women and children whose labor helped make possible this period of astonishing transition and innovation.
