About this book

A private railway car and a family reunion introduce the comfortable world of young artist Alfonso Harris. In New York, he prepares to meet his parents and sisters before joining them on travels abroad. His father, Reuben, has made a fortune in iron and steel, and Alfonso's choice of art over business has tested their relationship. Charles E. Bolton places family expectations and romance within a novel about the obligations linking employers and workers.

That concern becomes concrete when George Ingram examines the machinery aboard the Campania. Watching stokers work in intense heat, he resolves to help lessen the hardships of labor. Descriptions of engines, furnaces and working shifts give the social argument a practical setting.
