Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the clash of tradition and ambition in early 20th-century America, focusing on the journey of Hewitt Stevenson, a young man grappling with the expectations of his family and the allure of a life beyond the farm. Raised in rural Indiana, Hewitt is torn between his father's desire for him to become a successful farmer and his own yearning for intellectual pursuits, fueled by his experiences in Chicago. The author captures the anxieties and aspirations of a generation caught between the fading values of agrarian America and the burgeoning possibilities of urban life. Through Hewitt's struggles, the book explores themes of social class, education, and the search for identity in a rapidly changing society. Ultimately, it offers a poignant glimpse into the complexities of family, ambition, and the evolving definition of success in a world on the cusp of modernity.
