His bitter third wife, his two children, his sister, his friends, and his would be biographers are drawn into a maelstrom of intense memories and painful encounters as each of the major players in Peter's life seeks to appropriate Peter's estate for his or her own purposes.

The death of flamboyant writer and womanizer Peter Grosvenor sets in motion a series of spiraling events surrounding his legacy and his estate. His bitter third wife, his two children, his sister, his friends, and his would-be biographers are drawn into a maelstrom of intense memories and painful encounters as each of the major players in Peter's life seeks to appropriate Peter's estate for his or her own purposes. As a complex story of passion, jealousy, and loss unfolds, the figures that had once blossomed in Peter's presence spin off into their own orbits and turn against one another without the anchor of his charismatic presence. Ultimately, the tragedy and scandal that marred his life cannot be ended even by his death. Susan Fromberg Schaeffer writes with exquisite flavor and measure; character, history, and relationships build into a large, minutely detailed canvas and remind us why she is a master of the epic novel.

Came used with dirty pages
Format: Paperback
The book clearly is not new, the pages are folded over and dirty with dirt. There is a sticky residue on the back cover of the book. Really gross.

Best E&E out there
Format: Paperback
This is the best E&E book out there! Helped me a ton in Torts and I owe my A in Torts to this book. There's a whole section on how to write a torts exam and the examples & explanation sections are AMAZING and really detailed. The best sections are on factual/actual cause and proximate cause and the nuances between the two.

You cannot go wrong with these original Golden Books!
Format: Hardcover
I have treasured this book since I was a child and it has always been a part of my very fond memories. I was thrilled to see this book for sale after all these (40+?) years and I am so excited to be able to impart the innocent and meaningful life lessons that these timeless quality books have unto my grandchildren. I'm sure they will love this book as much as I did; and if not, I am glad to have it back just for a quick trip back to those good ole days, even if it's only for five minutes. I purchased this book as a used seventies edition and it looks like it's been loved and smells like a good book should. The condition was exactly as described and I would highly recommend this seller.

Golden memories that form new ones
Format: Hardcover
The Little Golden books bring back memories of my adult children when they were young. So why would this great-grandma not begin a collection for her great-grand baby starting with her first-birthday? These books are excellent, never disappointing.
