Omschrijving

The Builders is a novel written by Ellen Anderson Gholson Glasgow and published in 1919. The story takes place in the post-Civil War South and focuses on the lives of two families, the Marstons and the Ashburns. The Marstons are wealthy plantation owners who are struggling to maintain their way of life in the face of changing economic and social conditions. The Ashburns, on the other hand, are poor but hardworking farmers who are determined to build a better life for themselves and their children.As the two families become intertwined, they must confront the challenges of a changing society, including the rise of industrialization and the decline of the traditional plantation system. Along the way, they also grapple with issues of race, gender, and class, as well as the personal struggles of love, loss, and redemption.Through her vivid and nuanced portrayal of these characters and their world, Glasgow offers a powerful commentary on the complexities of Southern life in the aftermath of the Civil War. With its richly drawn characters, evocative setting, and timeless themes, The Builders remains a classic of American literature and a must-read for anyone interested in the history and culture of the South.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
