Juggernaut is a novel written by Edward Frederic Benson and first published in 1911. The story is set in London and revolves around the life of a wealthy and powerful businessman named Mr. Richard Vane. Vane is the head of a large shipping company and is known for his ruthless business tactics and his ability to crush anyone who stands in his way. The novel begins with Vane's daughter, Cynthia, falling in love with a young artist named Hugh. Vane disapproves of the match and does everything in his power to break them apart. Meanwhile, Vane's business empire is threatened by a rival shipping company that is trying to take over his business. Vane is determined to fight back and protect his company at all costs. As the story unfolds, Vane's obsession with maintaining his power and wealth leads him down a dangerous path. He becomes increasingly ruthless and manipulative, willing to do whatever it takes to maintain his position. His actions have devastating consequences for those around him, including his own family. Juggernaut is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that explores themes of power, greed, and the corrupting influence of wealth. Benson's vivid descriptions of London society in the early 20th century and his complex characters make this a compelling read for anyone interested in classic literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
