Levy paints Newman not just as a movie star but as a determined entrepreneur, family man and racer - a man who admitted mistakes as he made them, took advantage of good luck when it came his way, and did his best to turn both personal fortune and tragedy (his son died of a drug overdose in 1978) into productive public causes.

The hotel is right in town, within walking distance of the Fenimore Art Museum (the current exhibit features American artists' impressions of Rome at the turn of the century) and the Farmers' Museum, a living museum and ode to farming, with maple syrup-making and butter-churning demonstrations and a blacksmith shop. A special anniversary package starts at $299, breakfast included, through June 11. Or you could throw down for the VIP package, which includes breakfast...
