Synopsis

In an age of possibility and invention, the world was what they made it.

The life of the Moran family is interwoven into their rural farming community, sharing work and persevering through hardships alongside their neighbors. But when Daniel Moran dies, his wife and children are forced to sell the farm to pay off debts in his name. Elizabeth, his daughter, is determined to do whatever she can to keep the family together while his son, Paul, looks to the burgeoning technologies of the Gilded Age as a means to provide for the family.

Elizabeth finds camaraderie in Danny McDermott and his labor union ties. Simultaneously, an old friend-turned-steel baron offers a position in his steel mill to Paul. Time and again, as the Morans make progress, they’re met with loss. They endure the waves of opposition until the assault turns deadly and the family is forced to question whether they have what it takes to survive.

Their Wonted Fires is a sweeping saga that will take you from the Gilded Age’s opulent mansions to its gritty slums. If you like immersive historical worlds, unvarnished storytelling, and emotional resonance, then you’ll love Michael Robert Drane’s unflinching tale.

Reveal what’s beneath the luster of the Gilded Age. Journey through Their Wonted Fires today.
