Colossi is a novel written by William Roger Greeley and first published in 1906. The story is set in the early 20th century and follows the lives of two men, David and John, who come from vastly different backgrounds but share a common goal: to build a massive skyscraper in New York City. David is a wealthy businessman who has made his fortune in real estate, while John is a working-class architect with a talent for designing innovative buildings. Together, they embark on a project to construct the tallest building in the world, a feat that will require them to overcome numerous obstacles and challenges. As the construction of the building progresses, the two men must navigate a complex web of personal and professional relationships, including romantic entanglements, financial pressures, and political maneuvering. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including rival developers, corrupt officials, and labor leaders fighting for workers' rights. Colossi is a gripping tale of ambition, power, and the human cost of progress. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 20th-century New York City, as well as a timeless exploration of the forces that drive individuals to achieve greatness.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
