A thousand shall fall

Edición de la obra A thousand shall fall

The war to end all wars is over, and the soldiers have come home. Birch Tucker, with his wife Trudy, and his sons, makes his way back to Shiloh, Arkansas, his boyhood home, to carve out a new life for his family. Mrs. Meyer, now a financial columnist for the "New York Times," moves among the wealthy and influential stock barons of the world. Life in America in the Twenties holds out the tantalizing promise of peace and prosperity. But things are not what they seem. The peace is not permanent, and the prosperity moves toward its inevitable end. Birch and his family face the grim prospect of losing everything they have worked for. And Max may have to give up all his wealth and influence to gain the son he never knew he had. - Publisher.
