Ever wonder what how the story of Romeo and Juliet might have played out had instead of dying, they defied their families and eloped? If this engrossing memoir is any indication, happily ever after might have proved elusive. The Romeo here is Cornelius “Neily” Vanderbilt (a great grandson and the heir-apparent of the legendary Commodore). His star-crossed lover is the beautiful and gregarious Grace Wilson. They married against the wishes of his parents—a mystery since Grace was from a charming but respectable family (albeit with a reputation for social climbing). Partially disinherited, Neily and Grace still manage to live lavishly, and Grace, through sheer force of will, gradually became the Mrs. Vanderbilt of her generation. With mid-20th Century hindsight, their son, Cornelius, Jr., fascinatingly relates this Gilded Age story. Relying memory, personal records and family archives, he makes the case that his Vanderbilt grandparents were correct; Grace and Cornelius were not well suited. This English edition has a catchier title than its American counterpart and the better dust jacket illustration, featuring the massive malachite vase at 634 Fifth Avenue, the vast Vanderbilt chateau, which Neily and Grace inherited despite their ostracism (courtesy of an irrevocable trust). The author is their son, who became a journalist and author.

Good fit, good quality, great price
Size: 16"-16.5" Neck 32"-33" Sleeve, Color: Carbon
I ordered a few of these in different patterns. They fit great (I used to be a L/XL, now I'm down to a M/L). The price is a third of similar shirts from other Men's stores and fit the same. They look great with jeans or slacks, tucked or untucked, with or without a jacket.

Nice, but...
Size: 16"-16.5" Neck 32"-33" Sleeve, Color: Tulip
The shirt is nice and fits well. However, it's not slim fit. It's just regular fit and "slim fit" should be removed from the description.

Stylish shirt
Size: 14"-14.5" Neck 32"-33" Sleeve, Color: Ash Green
Perfect fit and size, as promoted. The quality and feel (comfort) are nice. The color is a little lighter than what I could see on the screen, but I liked it. The shirt is not too thin or thick.
