Geoffrey O'Brien, editor in chief of the Library of America, wrote "The Fall of the House of Walworth: a Tale of Madness and Murder in Gilded Age America" after visiting an exhibit about the Walworth family in Saratoga Springs, N.Y. The book begins with the murder of the novelist Mansfield Walworth by his son Frank. This crime leads the author in an exploration of generations of the Walworth family and their fall from prominence.
