About this ebook
A descendant of presidents John and John Quincy Adams, and the black sheep of her family, astrologer Evangeline Adams flees provincial Boston in 1899 to launch her business in New York City. On the train ride, she casts her own horoscopic chart. Her findings--death on November 10, 1932 and an unusual intimate union--alarm her. Soon after, she meets actress and suffragist Emma Sheridan-Fry, and she spends the rest of her life torn between society's restrictions and the trail-blazing nature that made her one of the most prominent female businesswomen of her time. Peopled with real historical figures, including J.P. Morgan, King Edward VII, Enrico Caruso, Rudolph Valentino, Charles Schwab, Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin, Sheridan-Fry (who was known to have been a "companion" of Evangeline's) and occult figure Aleister Crowley, Evangeline The Seer of Wall St. immerses readers in a New York populated with the Wall Street wealthy and the downtrodden, all of whom visited Evangeline's Carnegie Hall office.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The novel reads like a special diary. Full of intimate detail on the amazing life of Evangeline Adams, astrologer to the rich, powerful, and every day man. I fully enjoyed the story of this amazing woman I’d never heard of before and felt I could easily sit and have a cup of postum with her. She was a utterly self-made woman and helped so many organize their lives all according to the stars. Although, possibly a prisoner to her own forecasts, she made the most of her passions and overcame any familial doubters. And while there seemed to be no love lost between Evangeline and her promoter husband G.E., they were quite a team to reckon with. A book that proves that love comes to those who wait. Thoroughly good reading.This book was provided free for an honest review.
