Omschrijving

Pickett's Gap is a novel written by Homer Greene and first published in 1902. The story is set in a small town called Pickett's Gap, located in the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee. The novel follows the lives of the town's inhabitants, including farmers, merchants, and mountain people. The main character is a young man named David Pickett, who inherits his family's farm after his father's death. David struggles to keep the farm running and faces challenges from the neighboring farmers. Meanwhile, a wealthy businessman named John Hale arrives in town and begins buying up land and businesses, causing tension and resentment among the locals. As the story progresses, David falls in love with Hale's daughter, Mary, and the two must navigate their differing backgrounds and the disapproval of their families. The novel also explores themes of class conflict, family dynamics, and the changing landscape of rural America at the turn of the 20th century. Pickett's Gap is a vivid portrayal of life in a small town and the struggles of its inhabitants. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era and the challenges faced by those living in rural communities during a time of great change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
