Beyond a Gilded Cage gives a fascinating account of Victorian life on Boston's Beacon Hill through the eyes of a progressive and courageous woman. Laura Marquand Walker paints a social history of Victorian America through a series of vignettes drawn from her world which included luminaries of the highest literary and artistic circles. Her railroad journey to California, fourteen years after the driving of the golden spike, depicts life across the nation. Her tales and adventures in the prestigious Cornish Art Colony provide a rare glimpse into the personalities of leading artists of the Gilded Age. Fern K. Meyers has turned Laura Walker’s Memories into an adventure story and good entertainment from cover to cover.
