Life with Father Synopsis

In late-19th-century New York City, a Wall Street broker likes to think his house runs his way, but finds himself constantly bemused at how much of what happens is down to his wife. His children are also stretching their wings, discovering girls, and making money selling patent medicines. When it comes to light that he has never been baptized and everyone urges him to remedy this, it gets to be too much. —Jeremy Perkins {J-26}
