"Life at the Top: Inside New York's Grand Hotels," a celebrity biography of some of New York's grandest and most romantic hotels, contains dozens of original stories about famous literary, theater and movie personalities. Author Ward Morehouse III, a columnist for AM New York, former columnist for the New York Sun and the New York Post and a staff correspondent for 10 years for the Christian Science Monitor, briefly chronicles the lives of many of the 20th Century's literary and artistic giants who lived at the Plaza, Waldorf-Astoria, Algonquin, St. Regis, Carlyle, Chelsea and many other hotels. Morehouse paints a unique portrait of their glamorous, exciting, touching and sometimes tragic lives in the golden era of New York hotels and theater, bringing the two worlds together in a work that reads like great fiction. He reconfirms his status as a superb chronicler of Americana as well as one of our most engaging storytellers.
