Book Reviews of Captains and the Kings
Book Review: Taylor Caldwell has done her research well!
Summary: 5 Stars
Incredible knowledge the author has about what is really happening in the world...who really has the power! Seems the characters are metaphorical of a very well-known American family...couched in historical fiction. Hard to put this book down!!
Summary of Captains and the Kings
This is the life story of Joseph Armagh, a destitute orphan who emigrated from Ireland because of the famine. His bitter experiences in childhood leave him cold hearted and in pursuit of money at all costs, and he achieves incredible wealth and power in America. His goal at any price is to make his son president of the United States. The other more interesting part of this book though is about the control of wealth and real power in the world in the hands of a few. There was a made for TV mini series based on this story.Historical Books
