Autor

A fresh start for every new book, and author Tichi's zest for America's Gilded Age and its boldface names draws this seasoned writer to a crime fiction series while uncorking the country's cocktail cultures on the printed page. Tichi digs deep into the Vanderbilt University research library to mine the late 1800-1900s history and customs of Society's "Four Hundred," its drinks, and the ways high-stakes crimes in its midst make for a gripping "Gilded" mystery series that rings true to the tumultuous era. The decades of America's industrial titans and "Queens" of Society have loomed large in Tichi's books for several years, and the titles track her recent projects:¿Civic Passions: Seven Who Launched Progressive America (and What They Teach Us)¿Jack London: A Writer's Fight for a Better AmericäWhat Would Mrs. Astor Do? A Complete Guide to the Manners and Mores of the Gilded Age¿Gilded Age Cocktails: History, Lore, and Recipes from the Golden Age¿Jazz Age Cocktails: History, Lore, and Recipes from the Roaring Twenties.¿A Gilded Death (crime fiction)¿Murder, Murder, Murder in Gilded Central Park (crime fiction)¿A Fatal Gilded High Note (crime fiction)¿A Deadly Gilded Free Fall (crime fiction)¿A Fatal Gilded High Note (crime fiction)¿A Gilded Drowning Pool (crime fiction)¿Death in a Gilded Frame (crime fiction) ¿A Gilded Redwood Coffin (crime fiction)Cecelia enjoys membership and posting in Facebook's The Gilded Age Society.
