Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney (1899-1992)

Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney, known both as “C.V.” and “Sonny,” was a distinguished figure whose life embodied the legacy of two of America’s most storied families—the Vanderbilts and the Whitneys. The son of businessman and Thoroughbred breeder Harry Payne Whitney and his wife, Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, founder of the Whitney Museum of American Art, he inherited a deep connection to both industry and art. A financier, philanthropist, and passionate horseman, Whitney carried forward the family’s celebrated tradition in Thoroughbred racing. Beyond the racetrack, he was a co-founder and the first president of Pan American Airways and a co-founder of Selznick International, which produced such enduring classics as A Star Is Born (1937) and Gone with the Wind (1939).

Marylou Whitney (1925-2019)

In 1958, C.V. married Marie Louise Schroeder Hosford, who would become known to the world as Marylou Whitney—a sparkling presence affectionately known as the “Queen of Saratoga” and a tireless advocate for the sport of racing. Together, they revitalized Saratoga’s summer season, entertaining with warmth and flair at Cady Hill and the Canfield Casino, where Marylou’s legendary parties blended elegance, humor and excitement. Following Cornelius’s death in 1992, Marylou continued her deep involvement in the racing community and later married John Hendrickson, with whom she shared her passion for philanthropy and horse racing, in particular the backstretch community and the National Museum of Racing

Wonderful overview of the Bible
Format: Hardcover
I love this book because it gives a thorough overview of the Bible, and it’s easy to understand. I watched the video series that goes with the book, and I enjoyed it so much that I felt I had to get the book. They are both wonderful teachers who make the content easy to understand and remember. They helped me better understand the structure of the Bible.

Very good Bible Study.
Format: Hardcover
I cannot say enough about this book. If you do the readings and assignments it will change your life. I never expected to learn so much. When I hear someone make a reference to a particular character or event in the Bible, I am usually familiar with it. I really feel like I have gained a better understanding of God and what he wants from us. I want to know more. I absolutely recommend this book to anyone who is seriously interested in learning about our place in God’s Creation. I hope that someone might be able to tell me where to go from here in my journey of discovery.

Awesome Book
Format: Hardcover
This book is enlightening and insightful. It is a Big Picture view of the Bible and shows you how everything ties together in a beautiful picture of the unfailing love God. I have purchased several to give to others and I am currently using it to teach a Lay Pastor class and a small group. A recommended read for everyone.
