The Season: the Secret Life of Palm Beach and America's Richest Society
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: HarperTorch
- Publish date: 09/01/2000
The wealthiest, most glamorous, decadent spot on earth, Palm Beach is home to billionaires, trust fund babies, women addicted to staying beautiful whatever the cost, and the sophisticated "walkers" who escort them. It is also the zip code of choice for the Old Guard, the heirs whose names tell the story of American business -- Hilton, Pillsbury, duPont, and Ford -- and for the beautiful people -- Tom Cruise, Christie Brinkley, and Whitney Houston. In this juicy, entertaining book, Ronald Kessler goes inside the homes, clubs, and minds of these super rich. Introducing some of the most unusual, fascinating people in the world, he reveals the social rituals that culminate in "the Season", a five-month whirlwind of parties, balls, and charity events that no one who's anyone dares to miss. The rich are very different. Find out how, in The Season.
