Sam Carboy didn't believe it, and bought in the falling market laying the foundations of what became the greatest fortune in England. With this security, he dared to oust his partner, split the firm, and start out on his own, The enmity engendered colored the lives of both families for three generations, as fortunes rose and fell. And in this charting of England's course lies the background of the best part of the story.… Read More

"Early in the last century the hardy woodchoppers began to come west, out of Vermont. They founded their homes in the Adirondack wildernesses and cleared their rough acres with the axe and the charcoal pit. After years of toil in a rigorous climate they left their sons little besides a stumpy farm and a coon-skin overcoat. Far from the centers of life their amusements, their humors, their religion, their folk lore, their views of things had in them the flavor of the timber lands, the simplicity of childhood."

About The Book: "What are the principal differences between America's two major political parties? — To bewildered voters of the present day, who find the positions of liberal Republicans and middle-of-the-road Democrats practically indistinguishable, this question is one of utmost concern. — Here in a light, lively manner, a front-rank historian traces the growth and development of the two parties; and by focusing on fundamental differences in constitutional interpretation, social philosophy, and economic theory, he shows how basic Democratic and Republican goals, as well as methods of attaining these goals, have remained remarkably unchanged down through the years."
