Presented with unparalleled visual poetry and lyricism, the grandeur of this jewel of America's great avenues is unveiled, taking readers behind the bevelled glass doors and into the incomparable homes of St. Charles Avenue. Many of these interiors have never been published. Working together for the first time as a photographer/writer team, Kerri McCaffety and her mother, Cynthia Reece McCaffety, tell the story of St. Charles Avenue as a pictorial biography of the grandest thoroughfare of America's most romantic city. This volume will stand as the definitive story of St. Charles Avenue.
