Description: Aside from the magnificent writing and compelling story, the book provides a vivid account of "the rise and fall" of, what must have been, the typical history of these small towns in the plains of Colorado, at the turn of the Century and with the arrival of the great depression. Its a rollercoaster ride of emotions for the many characters in the book. Interesting enough, it appears Trumbo based the book and the characters on folks from his town of Grand Junction, CO which caused quite a stir. At the beginning of the book is a list of who the townsfolk thought were the real people behind most of the characters. Get ready to live out this history through the "hero", John Abbott. There are many surprises in store. Conditions: In Very good condition. There are signs of wear on the head and tail of the cover on the spine but I have covered it in an acid-free protective, plastic cover, which covers this wear and preserves the book. Please contact me with any questions and happy eBaying
