Thank you for sharing! I grew up in the Berkshire’s and moved back 10 years ago.. I have been to the Mount many times to listen to music and tour the grounds. One of my wonderful friends had a fantastic surprise 60th birthday party at Blantyre in the same room he was in with Ann Fitzpatrick Brown. My mother went to school with her in Stockbridge and it is a shame that she passed a few years ago.. Ann’s parents owned The Red Lion Inn on Main Street Stockbridge and Country Curtains. I feel lucky to live here with amazing culture at my fingertips!
This is not documentary folks, it is an episode for a lifestyle series. Our intention was to tour the house and how Edith entertained. Edith was a designer, author and a person who entertained often, those the period food segments. IT IS NOT A DOCUMENTARY!!!!

No, Joshep Wharton was the benefactor to the Wharton School of Business. Edith Jones only became Edith Wharton upon her marriage. Her husband was however distantly related to the aforementioned industrialist.
What a bunch of rot! To build a. house this big at that time took A LOT OF MONEY. To write about a house that only a very, very few could afford is, well. as bit pretentious. Spare me this sucking up to the very rich! It makes me very sad that we lap up anything that money can buy! Stop, stop, stop this sucking up to the rich!
This is not a documentary or biography, it is an episode for a lifestyle series about design, food, and travel. It never was or will be a documentary. Sorry.
In fairness, the show is called “Moment of Luxury”, not “Extended Dissertation of Historical Figures”. He says at the start that he’s going to be specifically looking at how people would have been fed at a picnic or dinner party at Edith’s crib.
“So join me... to enjoy a Victorian dinner party inspired by her novel... and taste some picnic food of that era” nowhere does it say documentary lol. Dry up fella.
