1902. Rives was a member of one of America's oldest families and the wife of a prominent American diplomat. She authored The Modern and Complete Book of Etiquette. As a novelist she wrote several best sellers. Hearts Courageous begins: In the year of grace 1774, a climbing sun glowed above his Majesty's Colony of Virginia.
