The biographer Donna M. Lucey will be making two appearances this week to
discuss and sign "Archie and Amelie: Love and Madness in the Gilded Age,"
her biography of John Armstrong Chanler, an heir to the Astor fortune, and
his wife, the Virginia novelist Amelie Rives. Some of you may remember
visiting their home, Castle Hill (just outside Charlottesville), while it
was a museum. It is now in private hands and was very recently rescued
from developers.
Lucey will be in Richmond this Tuesday, July 11, at 6:30 at Fountain
Books, 1312 East Cary Street (804-788-1594). On Wednesday the 12th at
7:00 she will be in Washington, D.C. at Olsson's Books-Penn Quarter, 418
Seventh St. NW, (202-638-7610).
