Location: Trinity Episcopal Church

Address: 1579 Northern Boulevard ## A, Roslyn, NY 11576

Brought to you by Roslyn Landmark Society and Trinity Episcopal Church

Step into the world of the servants during New York's Gilded Age. Ether Crain discusses her second book, "The Gilded Age in New York, 1870-1910". The book and lecture take a deep dive into the Gilded Age—exploring what day-to-day life was like in an age of posh Fifth Avenue mansions and crowded tenements; of deep political corruption and a widening gap between rich and poor.

Rarely seen photographs and illustrations help tell the story of how New York transformed from a small-scale post-Civil War city lit by gas and powered by horses into a mighty metropolis of skyscrapers, subways, blazing electric light, and rapid social change.

The Roslyn Landmark Society is at the forefront of the preservation movement on Long Island. Its mission is to preserve and promote the rich history and historical resources in the 350-year-old Village of Roslyn and the surrounding community.
