The Springs are giant mirrors reflecting the Southerner and his ladies on parade in the era of their glory. From behind the mists of time, Mr. Reniers has brought hundreds of these charming and often harrassed people and put them on display as they were, for above all else this is a book of people. He tells how they early discovered a social taste in the waters and contracted Springs~fever; how they ate, smoked segars, gambled at faro, arranged their marriages, danced and not infrequently died and were buried; how every Southerner who could afford it, from New Orleans to Baltimore, rushed up to the Springs every summer to hoist the banner of folly or the banner of the invalid, as the case might be. It was a mass movement to a single region unequalled since the Crusades. Here is everybody who was anybody in the South both before and after the Civil War, everybody from George Washington, one of the original Bath~ites, to Irene Langhorne, the last of the great belles in the Nineties. Here are the princely planters who built houses and made the Springs their second homes, Colonel Richard Singleton and Colonel Wade Hampton. Here are Jefferson, Lee, Clay and Tyler, all drinking water either for their physical or their political health. Here are the South's leading belles in full dress, from the chiseled beauty, Mary Triplett, to the daring femme fatale, Minnie Allen. And here, too, are the Northerners and the Europeans who flocked to Virginia to see what all the to~do was about. Whether he is telling the story of the lovechase known as the Springs Tour, of Hal Dulany, Virginia's four~in~hand hero, or of the tireless maidens of belledom, Mr. Reniers writes from the record and the record was set down long ago on the spot by scribblers of high and low degree. Authors rode in every coach, slept in every bed; it was an age of pen wielders and but for their galloping nibs the record would be sparse and the social atmosphere only a thick fog punctuated by tall white pillars.
