The Age of Ivory is a novel written by Henry Harmon Chamberlin and originally published in 1903. The story takes place in the late 19th century and follows the life of a young man named Philip Ware, who is born into a wealthy family in New York City. Philip is sent to Europe to study art, and while there he becomes involved in a love affair with a beautiful and mysterious woman named Sylvia. As the story progresses, Philip becomes increasingly drawn into Sylvia's world of secrets and intrigue. He discovers that Sylvia is involved in the ivory trade, which at the time was a highly controversial and often illegal business. Philip is torn between his love for Sylvia and his growing awareness of the ethical implications of the ivory trade. The novel explores themes of love, morality, and the clash between traditional values and modernization. It also provides a vivid portrait of turn-of-the-century New York City and the European art world. Overall, The Age of Ivory is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into a fascinating period of history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
