Commentary: Biography of the New York socialite and associate of the Astors and Stuyvesants. Although nothing sexually explicit in the book a few quotes maybe of interest: "... he delighted in women's clothes... buying men's clothes bored him. Oh, if only I could wear ladies clothes." And to his wife, "I am not like other men, I told you long ago that I cannot love any women. All women are repulsive to me..."
