Description

A family builds its empire in books four through six of an American historical epic from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of North and South.

This multigenerational saga follows the Kent family in their pursuit of a better future in the expanding United States amid deceit, passion, and violence. From the brutal Battle of the Alamo to the bloody Civil War, their fate is intertwined with the course of American history in these three volumes of the series from John Jakes, "the godfather of historical novelists" (Los Angeles Times).

The Furies: Amanda Kent escaped the massacre at the Alamo. Brazen and focused, she works to make a new life for herself during the California Gold Rush, willing to risk everything to restore her family's name...

The Titans: During the Civil War, the Kent family fights greed and hatred. In New York, devious Louis Kent controls the family dynasty -- now on the verge of collapse. Meanwhile, his cousin Jephtha Kent backs the abolitionist cause even though it may cost him his sons...

The Warriors: With the advent of the transcontinental railroad, the Kents continue to fight for their place among America's wealthy. Temptation beckons young Jeremiah Kent as a Southern belle lures him into a trap of lust, lies, and murder. The nation may be facing a rebirth, but that doesn't mean all survive...

"The Kents' story remains memorable for many reasons, but it remains necessary because its protagonists understand that American ideals aren't simply what we profess to believe but how we choose to live and the price we are willing to pay for those choices." -- New York Times
