Great find. What strikes me as so poignant with these Millionaire mansions and their family stories is that the wealth that could build and sustain such a castle was often so brief that it lasted only for one or two generations. I always theorize that once such a thing was attained, the drive to continue in that vein was lost to the next generation. |
