The Purchase Price is a novel by Emerson Hough that tells the story of a young woman named Joan Carver who inherits a vast fortune from her father. However, her newfound wealth comes at a price, as she is forced to marry a man she does not love in order to keep her inheritance. Joan's husband, John Fairmeadow, is a wealthy businessman who is determined to make her fall in love with him. Despite his efforts, Joan cannot forget her true love, a man named Jim. As Joan struggles to come to terms with her new life, she must also navigate the treacherous world of high society, where she is constantly judged and scrutinized by those around her.As the story unfolds, Joan must decide whether to follow her heart and pursue a life with Jim, or stay with John and maintain her wealth and status. Along the way, she learns valuable lessons about love, loyalty, and the true meaning of happiness.The Purchase Price is a classic tale of love and sacrifice, set against the backdrop of the early 20th century. With its vivid descriptions of high society and its timeless themes of love and redemption, this novel is sure to captivate readers of all ages.The headlong haste of both sections was in the year 1850 halted for a time by the sage counsels of such leaders as Clay, in the South, even Webster, in the North. The South claimed, after the close of the Mexican War and the accession of the enormous Spanish territories to the southwest, that the accepted line of compromise established in 1820, by which slavery might not pass north of the parallel of latitude thirty-six degrees, thirty minutes, should be extended westward quite to the Pacific Ocean.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
