About this book
Novelist Ellen Glasgow returns to her native state of Virginia in this epic drama set in the post-Civil War period. Two families -- the Blakes and the Fletchers -- experience rapid shifts in fortune. The genteel Blakes lose everything they own, while the up-and-coming Fletchers claw their way to the top.
