About This Item
New York, NY Dell Publishing Company, 1988. Mass Market Paper First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Very Good+ in Wraps: shows indications of very careful use: very light wear to extremities; barely discernible crease near the heel of the back strip and a crease along the front hinge; the top of the rear hinge has been bumped, and there is a fairly mild crumple crease at that point; a bit of shelf-soiling along the bottom edge; binding shows the slightest lean, while remaining perfectly secure; text clean. Remains close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 12mo. 781pp. Mass Market Paperback. The Hazards and Mains attempt to survive in the Reconstruction era in this the final book of the North and South Trilogy. Charles Main--the focus of the book--must deal with his status as traitor, as well as the death of his lover and raising his infant son, while he tries to find a place in the American West. Madeleine, Orry's widow, tries to fight racism and provide for the freedmen of her plantation. Meanwhile, Bent and Ashton are still looking for revenge, which is the running theme of the novel. Revenge against the North, against other races, against each other; the horrible feelings of a defeated and broken world. John Jakes concludes his fascinating historical/sociological trilogy with great changes and complications and eventual conclusion for his characters that span almost every aspect of America at the time.
