126. The Heiress Tour | The Casino and Gordon Bennett!

In this week’s episode in our Heiress Tour, we explore the life and legend of James Gordon Bennett, Jr., known internationally for his sporting, sailing, and spending.

Bennett is the man to blame for a great deal of the coming age in Newport R.I. when he establishes The Casino in 1880.All sources can be found at doneanddunne.com.Continue your investigation with ad-free and bonus episodes on Patreon!To advertise on Done & Dunne, please reach out to [email protected] or visit https://www.advertisecast.com/DoneDunne.
