It is set back in the late 1800's when Durham was just beginning to become known for its tobacco factories and textile mills. Men such as William T. Blackwell, John Merrick, and Washington Duke are featured in the book. Richard Harvey Wright worked as a partner with the Dukes as well as being a fierce competitor to the American Tobacco Company. Anyone interested in the history of Durham will find this easy to read book a must have.
