...Lady Astor, and the young dandy Lord Lichfield; from Madrid, Count and Countess de Romanones-Quintanilla, and from Rome, Donna Allegra Caracciolo. Paris sent Princess Peggy d'Arenberg and Dubonnet-Maker André Dubonnet; from Manhattan flew Marylou Whitney (with a sequined bee on her bonnet), along with Newport's Jimmy and Candy Van Alen, Gardiner's Island's Robert Gardiner, Hollywood's Carol Channing and politics' Ted Sorensen and Richard Nixon...

During the winter, they left their driveway unshoveled to discourage bill collectors. When their credit ran out on heating oil, they chopped up furniture to build a fire. One weekend they ended up with nothing in the house to eat except chocolate and marshmallows.
