Hardcover. Etat : Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Type: Hardback First Edition. Hardcover Ex-Lib Book in Good Condition. No Jacket. Ms Farnham's (1883-1957) three books set in the U. S. Midwest are probably her best works--"Rebellion"(1927); "Lost Laughter" (1933); and "Great Riches" (1934). She won a $10,000 prize for her first novel, "Rebellion". These stories portray marriage, small-town society and busyness adventures typical of their time. In "Great Riches" she depicts the rise of a young man in a country town, with domineering parents and scheming women. This story is set in a small pioneer Mid-Western town on the banks of the Missouri River. It is a story of the reactions of a charming masculine personality to the women who "furnish his background", told with insight into the emotions which make or break a sensitive individual. His problem of who would make a "better wife", is worked out through the lives of well-born, entertaining, and intelligent people, whome he looks upon as his own family.
