Lost in Wonderland's collection of essays explore the myths, social
climate and architectural tableaux that make Palm Beach like no
other place in the world. The island's uncommon melange of English
gardens, Tuscan loggias, Venetian staircases, Spanish patios,
Bermuda roofs, and Georgian doorways, makes for an incomparable
mirage-like grandeur attractive to both Old Money and the latest
Kings of Wall Street. Author and lecturer Augustus Mayhew, one of
Palm Beach's most popular columnists, offers twenty-one informative
and insightful essays, previously published in the Palm Beach Daily
News and the New York Social Diary, combined with more than two
hundred historical and contemporary photographs, which chronicle
the places and personalities that make Palm Beach a quirky blend of
fantasy and reality. He presents a unique perspective on the
shifting ground between Palm Beach's past as a seasonal resort
destination, to its present status as an exclusive residential
enclave with a social prism focused on mansions, condominiums and
charity balls.
