The Story of the Waldorf Astoria is a comprehensive historical account of one of New York City's most iconic hotels. Written by Edward Hungerford, a journalist and author who covered the hotel extensively during its early years, the book delves into the Waldorf Astoria's origins, construction, and evolution over time. The Waldorf Astoria was originally two separate hotels, the Waldorf and the Astoria, which were merged in 1893 to create a grand luxury hotel that quickly became a symbol of New York City's opulence and glamour. Hungerford traces the hotel's early days, including its famous guests and notable events, such as the birth of the Waldorf salad and the first-ever charity ball. The book also covers the hotel's major renovations and expansions, including the construction of the current Waldorf Astoria building in the 1930s. Hungerford describes the hotel's role in World War II, when it served as a headquarters for the US Army, and its later years as a hub for international diplomacy and high society events. Throughout the book, Hungerford weaves in anecdotes and stories from the hotel's past, bringing to life the personalities and events that have shaped the Waldorf Astoria's legacy. The Story of the Waldorf Astoria is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of New York City or the evolution of luxury hospitality.

Tremendous value
Color: 2-Rose Gold-07
The appearance is higher, probably $150-200 range. My daughter had some recent money issues (card theft) and didn't have the ability to get a gift. This was inexpensive enough so that I could leave it to her to give to her Mom. Of course, Mom was in tears. Thanks

Cute
Color: 2-Rose Gold-04
It's cute however it looks rose gold in person. And the chain is very thin. I personally didn't like it and wanted to return it but it was a gift and the person I gave it to loved it and actually loved that it was rose gold. The chain in my opinion was too small.
