Description

Richmond's Monument Avenue was once the epitome of wealth and privilege in the early twentieth century. Patricia Hass, a native of Richmond, has collected memories from those who grew up along its grand avenue. This collection of recollections offers a glimpse into the lives of children playing in the shadows of the monuments and visiting local institutions such as Reuben's Deli and the Capitol Theatre. As you enter each historic home along Monument Avenue, you can travel back to a time now lost to memory. The stories shared here are those of families who entertained famous guests, including notable figures from the world of entertainment and politics. This nostalgic account provides a unique insight into life in Richmond's elite community during its heyday.
