Présentation de l'éditeur
June afternoon Henry Winwood was seated with a visitor in his private office, a room whose aspect, like the library of a scholar, was significant of more than the outward processes of labor. The rich, sparse furniture, the prominent desk, ominously free from litter, suggested the orderliness of laws governing a great enterprise. Winwood ssolid frame filled one of the armchairs. His massive head, his obliquely set ears, his unshapely hands and feet, told of an origin deep in the soil; but his keen gray eyes were indicative of an intellect far from pastoral. Contrasted with him, James Erskine looked the idealist, a lean, ascetic figure of an American business monk, his features delicately tooled by sharp edges of thought, his spare body expressing the domination of the spirit as truly as that of an anchorite. He had the patient expression of the man who waits for, rather than makes, his chances. Winwood knew the type well. He had met it before, in small towns where small manufacturers, according to modern standards, carried on industries which had no right to stand alone. When he had thundered his commands to these men, Get in the procession, or get out of business, they had acted in different ways, each according to his traditions or to his financial standing.
