Podcast: Done & DunnePublished On: Mon Sep 25 2023
Description: We are dipping into a different avenue on our Heiress Tour in the next few episodes. Welcome to Newport! It’s been waiting for you.I am thrilled to begin this next Heiress arc introducing the history of this Rhode Island playground of the Gilded Age, long before the Gilded Age begins. Newport begins as a 17th century colonial experiment embracing religious freedom, and by the middle of the 1800’s is a flourishing seaside vacation village for the wealthy, coming in droves to exclusive luxury hotels for a summer escape.This is Newport from the 1500s to the 1870s – let’s set the scene for the most exclusive and expensive of Heiress playgrounds in the Gilded Age.All sources can be found at doneanddunne.com.Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on Patreon!To advertise on Done & Dunne, please reach out to sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://www.advertisecast.com/DoneDunne.
