The sixty-year period following the American Civil War was a time of great wealth accumulation and materialistic excess. This book examines the reasons for the new wealth and its unequal distribution, why quail were the preferred quarry of Gilded Age barons, what attracted the hunting moguls to the North Carolina Piedmont, what became of them and their hunting estates, and how technology produced changes that transformed the American landscape, causing the collapse of quail populations once thought limitless. The Pine Needles lodge, established in 1912, is examined in detail with novel stories based on records, memorabilia, and recollections of descendants of those involved in the establishment and management of the lodge.

THE BIOGRAPHER'S QUEST, based on fifty years of experience, explains how life-writers do archival research, find new sources, and experience the thrill of constant discoveries; it also discusses how to conduct interviews by establishing confidence, asking the right questions, and persuading people to reveal what they know. Meyers describes how to create a chronology, interpret often conflicting written and spoken evidence, organize material into a meaningful pattern, and show how the author's life illuminates his work.
