Synopsis

A sweeping multigenerational family saga of work, sacrifice, and pride that travels from the Clyde to the heart of a bustling English town.

Spanning generations, this story follows a Scottish family as they seek a better life through hard work in the ironworks and factories of a changing world. It centers on the MacWhinnies’ rise from modest beginnings to the promise—and perils—of wealth, and how loyalty, ambition, and love shape each new generation. With richly drawn characters, the narrative moves between the trials of fathers and the hopes of their children, offering a portrait of resilience and family devotion across decades.

The tale blends memory, duty, and the cost of progress, showing how the past informs the present in ways that test devotion and redefine what “home” means. This edition invites readers to walk alongside a family whose bonds endure even as circumstances, fortunes, and dreams shift with the times.

• Witness the drive of a family who makes a living through skilled labor and enterprise.
• See how tradition and pride shape choices across generations.
• Follow the arc of ambition, sacrifice, and the meaning of belonging.
• Experience intimate moments of family life, from everyday work to warm, personal stories.

Ideal for fans of sweeping historical fiction that centers on family, work, and perseverance through changing fortunes.

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.
