Judith Wynrod stands at the center of a tense family puzzle, where money, influence, and a bold newspaper venture collide in a high-stakes drama.
In this excerpt, a poised heiress confronts debt, loyalty, and a curiously sympathetic stranger who speaks of a larger, unsettling world. As conversations turn into confrontations, the boundaries between personal risk and public conscience begin to blur, hinting at a story about power, responsibility, and the price of truth.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an insightful and sometimes shocking exposà into the tumultuous life of Roger Wynrod, a young man of significant wealth, who has spent his life in privileged idleness in America's 'Gilded Age'. Despite the advantages bestowed upon him by inheritance, Wynrod is reckless, self-destructive, and increasingly estranged from the values of his social peers. The author takes readers on a revealing journey as Judith, Roger's sister and guardian, makes the difficult decision to withdraw his allowance in the hope of forcing him to take responsibility for his actions and break free from a cycle of self-sabotage. This book offers an incisive portrayal of America's leisure class at the turn of the 20th century while also presenting a universal story of struggle, growth, and the consequences of self-destructive behaviors.
