Viac o knihe
The transformation of Westbury from a small farming community to a bustling hub is vividly captured in this historical narrative. Founded in 1670 by Quakers, the town remained tranquil until the arrival of Wall Street tycoons in the early 20th century, which sparked rapid development. The construction of mansions, resorts, and even an airport marked its evolution, alongside hosting significant events like the 1904 Vanderbilt Cup auto race. Richard Panchyk explores the dynamic and sometimes contentious changes that shaped Westbury into a modern community.
