Description
Elbert Hubbard (1856-1915) of East Aurora, NY, was the founder of The Roycroft Shops, as well as a popular and controversial author and editor of three magazines. This book poignantly tells the story of the love, heartbreak, eventual marriage, and tragic deaths on the Lusitania of Alice and Elbert Hubbard. Drawing on the Hubbards’ personal correspondence, Charles F. Hamilton shows how Elbert Hubbard was strangely drawn to Alice Moore and driven by her inspiration to great heights of achievement, risking everything — his wealth, career, reputation, and loved ones — for her companionship. Includes index.
