The Amberson fortune grows with Midland city expansion from 19th century prosperity to grand Gothic pride. Major Amberson builds vast streets, manor, and estate while town thrifts deem style excessive. Isabel Amberson's betrothal to Wilbur Minafer marks high society but foreshadows later decline amid wealth and heir Georgie Minafer’s spoiled reign.
