A Strong Man's House is a novel written by Francis Neilson and published in 1916. The story revolves around the life of a young man named David Carr, who comes from a working-class family and dreams of building his own house. He works hard to save money and eventually becomes a successful businessman, but his success comes at a price. David's relationships with his family and friends become strained as he becomes more focused on his career and less connected to his roots.As David's ambition grows, he becomes entangled in a web of political corruption and power struggles. He must navigate the dangerous waters of New York City's political scene while also dealing with personal conflicts and betrayals. Along the way, he meets a strong and independent woman named Mary, who challenges him to reconsider his priorities and values.The novel explores themes of ambition, class, corruption, and the struggle to maintain one's integrity in a world that values power and wealth above all else. It is a powerful and thought-provoking work that offers a glimpse into the social and political landscape of early 20th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
