The Gilded Age Promise (Kopp Chronicles, #10) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The promise of the Gilded Age evokes a worldwide exhilarating time of technological advancement and economic expansion. American society is transforming from focusing on small rural farms to an urban one dominated by large corporations resulting in even more inequality between the wealthy and middle-class. Discriminatory segregation and immigration laws enacted by misguided and corrupt political leaders threaten to tarnish the American dream. Nevertheless, charismatic American women activists are generating a renewed impetus for women's rights through the alcohol temperance and women's suffragette movements.

Meanwhile, turmoil in the Middle East forces the dashing British military intelligence agent, Richard Cordwell, to come out of retirement and embark on a secret mission for Her Majesty's government. He encounters the beautiful French spy who stole his heart, and makes an astounding personal revelation!

Buffeted by these Gilded Age events, an immigrant American family is determined to stand firm in their belief in the hope, freedom, and opportunity, of their adopted country. The words written by poet Emma Lazarus on the plaque at the base of the Statue of Liberty express this belief:

"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

Enjoy the next volume in the sweeping Kopp Chronicles saga!
