The saga of the Astors epitomizes the American dream—a tale of ambition, innovation, downfall, and resurgence.
Beginning in 1783, when the German settler John Jacob Astor set foot in the U.S., and culminating in 2009 with the conviction of Brooke Astor’s son, Anthony Marshall, for exploiting his aged mother, the Astor legacy held a distinctive position in the annals of American history.
Initially amassing wealth through a thriving beaver trapping venture that evolved into a colossal empire, the family's riches were further bolstered by significant investments in Manhattan properties. As the years rolled by, the Astors dominated the illustrious social circles of Gilded Age New York and made their mark in both political and artistic arenas. Yet, they weren't immune to tragedies, including the infamous demise on the Titanic, adding another layer of intrigue to their storied lineage.
I love Anderson Cooper as a writer, he is great researcher and historian. I love that he has picked a lane and tells stories of great New York dynasties. He is a storyteller and he knows how to deliver not only on drama but on facts. Can’t wait for his next book Astor ❤️
