Title: They were NOT amused - but, I was!
Review: My goodness - don't be put off by the title. This is a swell book about swells! I have read this volume many times and have given it away as a gift too. Hundreds of humorous anecdotes about "Boston Brahmins" and the nouveau riche who invaded their watering holes. They were NOT amused - but, I was! I loved reading about the myopic brothers who founded the Myopia Hunt, the Sears heiress who used wandering tourists for target practise, the Booth Brothers (as in John Wilkes) summer haunts, and more. Very entertaining, very tongue in cheek. Great beach reading.
