Nothing in Redfield Proctor's early life suggested greatness. He almost died in the Civil War, squandered his inheritance and disliked farming and practicing law. But in 1869, a scheming woman enlisted his help in gaining control of a bankrupt marble mill. Proctor turned it into the largest marble operation in the world, creating his greatest legacy--Washington, D.C., with its many marble monuments and buildings. Using his fortune, he founded a political dynasty that elected four Proctors as governor, handpicked a president and made Proctor a cabinet secretary and a U.S. senator. Yet to get to the national stage, he had to divide a town. Linda Goodspeed presents his story in this historical novel about the passions and ruthless ambition that characterized him and his time and changed Rutland forever.
