   Description
The book is unrivaled in taking us behind the scenes, at make-believe San Simeon, still a Hollywood playground in that period, and beyond the myths surrounding the estate. Wyntoon, another of Hearst's fabled retreats in California, is covered as well. The Loorz Papers also delve into Hearst and Morgan's further pursuits, such as their Grand Canyon project in Arizona.From bank failures and presidential races to Hearst's royal entertaining and the opening of the Big Sur highway, the subjects here are part of an ever-changing pageant. Insightful and poignant, humorous and candid, Building for Hearst and Morgan-offers unique perspectives on a vivid era whose like we'll never see again.
