Balzac famously observed that “behind every great fortune is a crime”, but few of those crimes can have been as ingenious or stylish as the swindle that gave birth to the fortune and legend of Thomas Chance.
Set against – indeed entwined with – the emergence of American financial power and its upper class, Line of Chance (originally published by William Morrow & Company) traces the life, competing loves and unquenchable material passions of a charming rogue. The banks, clubs and mansions of New York and Boston, the seductive byways of Antebellum Baltimore, Harvard’s Gold Coast, Fitzgerald’s Princeton, Teddy Roosevelt’s Washington and a France enflamed by The Great War provide the mise en scéne upon which an archetypal American life reaches for happiness, greatness and immortality.
“A penetrating character study told with genuine narrative verve; panoramic in sweep, vivid and fast-paced.” – Walter Jackson Bate, author of Pulitzer Prize winning biographies, Samuel Johnson and John Keats.
LINE OF CHANCE edition by THOMAS CAPLAN Literature Fiction eBooks
In my opinion, this is Tom Caplan's best book, although it was written close to 20 years ago. It's obvious that Caplan knows a lot about the retail jewelry business, which I find particularly interesting. "Line of Chance" has been in my library since it was first published and I re-read it every five years or so, and each time I find it as enjoyable as the first. I highly recommend this book for a rainy weekend, a sunny couple of days at the beach, or anytime you'd like a good, fast read that will keep you totally absorbed until the last page is regretfully turned.Product details
