Synopsis

Adam's Sons is a novel written by Arthur Garfield Learned and published in 1906. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of two brothers, Adam and Seth, who are the sons of a wealthy and influential businessman. Adam is the older brother and the heir to his father's fortune, while Seth is the younger brother who struggles to find his place in the family and in society.The novel explores themes of family dynamics, social class, and the pursuit of wealth and power. Adam, the successful and ambitious brother, is portrayed as ruthless and self-centered, while Seth, the more compassionate and empathetic brother, is often overlooked and undervalued by his family and peers.As the story unfolds, the brothers' paths diverge, with Adam becoming increasingly involved in his father's business and Seth pursuing a career in medicine. Along the way, they encounter various challenges and obstacles, including romantic entanglements and financial setbacks.Ultimately, Adam's Sons is a cautionary tale about the dangers of prioritizing material success over personal relationships and moral values. The novel paints a vivid picture of a rapidly changing America at the turn of the 20th century and offers a timeless commentary on the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
