520    When Consuelo's grandfather died, he was the richest man 
       in America. Her father soon started to spend the family 
       fortune, enthusiastically supported by Consuelo's mother, 
       Alva, who was determined to attain the top of New York 
       society. She was adamant that her daughter should make a 
       grand marriage to the underfunded Duke of Marlborough--it 
       didn't matter that Consuelo loved someone else. However, 
       the story of Consuelo and Alva is not simply one of the 
       emptiness of wealth, of the glamour of the Gilded Age, and
       of enterprising social ambition. This is an account of how
       two women struggled to break free from the materialistic 
       world into which they were born, taking up the fight for 
       female equality. Consuelo threw herself into good works, 
       and her social and political campaigns proved an antidote 
       to loneliness. Alva embraced the militant suffragette 
       movement in America, campaigning vehemently for women's 
       rights until she died.--From publisher description.
