Excerpt from Black and White
Walter durant was born, duly christened and led a more or less uneventful life to the age of twenty-four. Insomuch as a man may be, he was self-made. With an astuteness that was neither inherited nor absorbed he decided that he was an old-young man. This was the time that he would set about for futurity. A life of work in which mediocrity was an ulti mate goal held no appeals for him. His father had been an elusive, charming, improvident man with hosts of friends and numberless acquaintances. With him money went faster and more pleasurably than seemed sensible to this canny young man.
