What is Florham: An American Treasure about?

The Friends of Florham are pleased to announce the publication of AN AMERICAN FROM THE GILDED AGE VANDERBILT-TWOMBLY ESTATE TO A CONTEMPORARY UNIVERSITY CAMPUS, a pictorial history of the Vanderbilt-Twombly estate that has become Fairleigh Dickinson University's Florham Campus, illustrated with vintage photographs and a wonderful collection of color photographs taken especially for this book, which show the campus as never seen before, including amazing shots from a drone. The estate opened in 1897 as the country home of Hamilton Twombly and his wife Florence Vanderbilt Twombly, a granddaughter of Cornelius Vanderbilt. The Florham mansion was one of the largest private homes ever built in America, and the estate featured a model prize-winning farm. The mansion was created by the famous architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White and the landscaping designed by Frederick Law Olmsted.
