The book chronicles Brooke Astor's life from her childhood as the daughter of a military man, her disastrous first marriage, her second marriage with the love of her life, and her third marriage, for which she would ultimately be remembered.
I would recommend following this book with "Mrs. Astor Regrets" by Meryl Gordon, as it covers in detail Mrs. Astor's death and the circumstances surrounding her guardianship. At the time of this book's publication, Mrs. Astor had not yet died.
