Omschrijving

""The Peace of Roaring River"" is a novel written by George Van Schaick and published in 1918. The story is set in the early 20th century and follows the life of a young man named David Carr who inherits a large estate in the Catskill Mountains. David is a city boy who is unfamiliar with the ways of country life, but he quickly adapts and falls in love with the natural beauty of the area. However, David's peaceful existence is disrupted when a group of wealthy businessmen come to the area with plans to build a dam on the river that runs through his property. David is strongly opposed to the dam, as it would destroy the natural habitat and disrupt the lives of the animals and people who depend on the river. The conflict between David and the businessmen escalates, and David finds himself at the center of a heated legal battle. Along the way, he meets and falls in love with a young woman named Ruth, who shares his love for the land and his passion for protecting it. ""The Peace of Roaring River"" is a story about the struggle between progress and preservation, and the importance of standing up for what you believe in. It is a timeless tale that still resonates with readers today, over a century after it was first published.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
