Product Description
Excerpt from Pickle for the Knowing Ones
The Dexter mansion, is yet standing, and is a very fine tenement, but retains few traces of the whims of its late proprietor. Of the images, upwards of forty in number, only the three Presidents now remain, the others having been cast down by the resistless hand of time. Some of them were blown down in the great gale of September, 1815, and were sold at auction.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Step into the vibrant world of 18th-century Newburyport, Massachusetts, and encounter the enigmatic figure of Lord Timothy Dexter, a self-made millionaire whose eccentricities and audacious endeavors captivated the nation. This book delves into the life and times of this extraordinary individual, a man who defied societal norms and carved his own path to fame and fortune. Born into humble beginnings, Dexter's rise to wealth was as unconventional as his personality. Through shrewd business ventures and a penchant for calculated risks, he amassed a considerable fortune, which he used to indulge his flamboyant tastes and desire for notoriety. From adorning his mansion with outlandish statues and minarets to appointing a poet laureate, Dexter's actions were a constant source of amusement and bewilderment to his contemporaries. This book explores the complexities of Dexter's character, examining his motivations, his relationships, and the societal forces that shaped his worldview. It delves into themes of wealth and class, ambition and eccentricity, and the pursuit of happiness in a rapidly changing world.
