NATIONAL BESTSELLERWINNER OF THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD In this groundbreaking biography, T.J. Stiles tells the dramatic story of Cornelius "Commodore" Vanderbilt, the combative man and American icon who, through his genius and force of will, did more than perhaps any other individual to create modern capitalism. Meticulously researched and elegantly written, The First Tycoon describes an improbable life, from Vanderbilt's humble birth during the presidency of George Washington to his death as one of the richest men in American history. In between we see how the Commodore helped to launch the transportation revolution, propel the Gold Rush, reshape Manhattan, and invent the modern corporation. Epic in its scope and success, the life of Vanderbilt is also the story of the rise of America itself.

Stunning clutch
Color: Champagne Gold-satin
Absolutely gorgeous. Even my husband commented on it and he never comments on purses. It will hold everything you need for a formal night out.

Elegant Hand Clutch
Color: Champagne Gold-satin
Phone will indeed fit inside, beautiful to carry or put on the chain, color was a little lighter than I thought champagne would have been; however, it worked very well. Will last for years details were very good.

Ok bags for the price
Color: Cream-woven
Disappointed gold looks cheap. Gold edging is very thin looking. There’s no puff at all to the weave. Returning the one with gold trim.
*** Now, for the one that they call White with the silver trim this to me has a nicer look. The white is not a true white so if you’re looking for a true white,as I was, this is not it. It’s more of an off-white creamy tone. Not white as pictured. The silver of the clasp has a slightly aged tone to it. I think it would be prettier if it was a shiny silver, Clasp is nice and smooth to open and close. On both colors. I do think the white is a nice summer bag and could be used casually with jeans and a T-shirt.

Doesn’t Look Cheap
Color: Silver-satin
Perfect purse for formal occasions. Fits nicely in your hand and has a strap if you want that look. Very pleased with my purchase.
