While most kids learn that C is for cat, the children of high-income families deserve a more exclusive education. C is for Country Club: The Affluent Alphabet will not only teach them their ABCs, but will also impart important lessons about earning, living with, and spending a vast amount of wealth. With letter designations such as "E is for equestrian," "I is for inheritance," and "L is for legacy," the book perfectly captures the nuances of the privileged life, with witty and insightful rhymes from A to Z. This is a must-have, laugh-out-loud funny book for all parents whose children grace the halls of private schools, avoid flying coach, and simply can't decide which summer home to visit on the weekends.

In this entertaining cultural history, Moss explores the circumstances that led to the establishment of the country club as an American social institution and its inextricable connection to the ancient, imported game of golf. Moss traces the evolution of country clubs from informal groups of golf-playing friends to "country estates" in the suburbs and eventually into public and private daily-fee courses, corporate country clubs, and gated golfing communities. The book shows how these developments reflect shifts in American values and attitudes toward health and sport, as well as changing social dynamics.
