How thoroughly enjoyable! The story of the famous leaded-glass Tiffany lamps, but also a peek into New York in the late 1800's and early 1900's which saw the end of the Victorian Era, electrification supplanting gas lights, the first NY subway, changes in construction, bicycles for all, and the beginning of the women's movement. This is a delightful read based a great deal upon recently found letters written by the real Clara Driscoll because all the historic Tiffany records had been destroyed by fire in 1957. They really should be called Driscoll lamps.
