Omschrijving

The Taskmasters is a novel written by George Kibbe Turner and published in 1902. The book is set in the late 1800s and follows the story of a young man named John Fenton, who is struggling to make a living in New York City. Fenton is a talented artist, but he is forced to work as a clerk in a law firm to make ends meet.Fenton's life takes a dramatic turn when he meets a group of wealthy businessmen who offer him a job as a ""taskmaster."" Taskmasters are hired by the wealthy to manage their estates and oversee their employees. Fenton is initially hesitant to take the job, but he is desperate for money and sees it as an opportunity to advance his career.As Fenton becomes more involved in the taskmaster world, he discovers that it is not as glamorous as it seems. He is forced to deal with corrupt businessmen, unhappy employees, and difficult living conditions. Fenton also begins to question his own morality as he becomes more and more involved in the lives of the people he is tasked with overseeing.The Taskmasters is a thought-provoking novel that explores themes of class, power, and morality. It is a compelling read that provides a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and the working class during the late 1800s in New York City.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
