The Chandler Heritage
by Ben Haas
On This Page
Description
Bolivar Chandler, fatherless and growing up poverty-stricken in post-Civil-War North Carolina, builds his dynasty on cotton. His son, Heath, avoids his stern, God-fearing father and becomes a pilot in World War I and adopts a sophisticated New York lifestyle, building his own dynasty at great cost to himself and his family. "Only as his rip-roaring life is ending does he at last face squarely the question of whether the Chandler heritage is blessing or curse"--from jacket.Tags

stunning portrait of a Southern mill town in the early 1900's and the family that owns it. Some say styled after owners Springs Mills
