Coniston

About “Coniston”

This book is about a love-story set in a time shortly after General Jackson entered the White House and demonstrated what a real democracy could be, marking the end of the Era of the first six presidents and the beginning of a new political era. The story involves gentlemen who believed in democracy but were determined to rise to power, leading to what is described as the Boss-Era, and includes a first love-story that ends unhappily, followed by a longer love-story later in the narrative.
