With a robust, four-part, 32-page Index by Buffalo History Museum Assistant Librarian Amy Miller and an Introduction to the Second Edition by Buffalo History Museum Research Librarian Cynthia Van Ness, there is finally excellent access to this encyclopedic book's amazing contents, street by street, family by family. The decades between the Mexican War and the beginning of World War I revolutionized America's cities. Industrial prosperity produced an astonishing proliferation of capitalists and industrialists positioned to garner a disproportionate share of the profits. These noveau riches erected magnificent mansions, creating aristocratic residential thoroughfares in cities like Chicago, Boston and Buffalo, of which Delaware Avenue was surely among the most magnificent. Classic Delaware Avenue ran two and a quarter miles, from Niagara Square to Chapin - now Gates - Circle. Four generations of inter-Avenue marriages created a closely knit, complicated cousinry. Encyclopedic in scope, Buffalo's Delaware Avenue: Mansions and Families is an immense book of facts that covers Buffalo's grandest Avenue. Discover the tales behind these mansions and their illustrious families.

About the Author
Born in Orange, New Jersey, in 1925, Edward Dunn entered the Society of Jesus in the summer of 1943. After college at Woodstock, Maryland, he taught at Regis High School in New York City from 1950 to 1953, returning to Woodstock to study theology. Ordained in 1956, he came to Canisius College in Buffalo, New York, in 1958, where he taught religion, moderated the Little Theatre, and earned a Masters degree in History in 1964. He received a Ph.D. in History from the University of Rochester in 1969. At Canisius College, Father Dunn taught history and also wrote A History of Railroads in Western New York and A History of the Park Club, as well as Buffalo's Delware Avenue. He retired from teaching in 1991, but continued to ride his bicycle and cheer on the Buffalo Bills until his death in 2013.
