Description

In this week’s episode in our Heiress Tour, we explore the life and legend of James Gordon Bennett, Jr., known internationally for his sporting, sailing, and spending. His is a story you won’t soon forget – like the expletive that is named for him. Bennett is the man to blame for a great deal of the coming age in Newport R.I. when he establishes The Casino in 1880.
