Power (The Spirit of America, Book 3)

423 pp. "The dramatic tale of one magnificent family forging a glorious future for a growing America. America was surging toward the 20th century with astonishing energy and growth. Across a restless land, daring pioneers led an entire nation roaring down undreamed roads and soaring into limitless skies. As the automobile and airplane became symbols of America's indomitable power, the country offered wealth and success to all who were bold enough to see the future...and to claim it as their own. The Stewarts--a new breed of men and women who boldly seized at opportunity to build a family dynasty as proud and as strong as this vast, towering land. Maurice--unafraid to defy his father's demands, he joined his dreams to those of inventors Ford and Olds to create a gigantic transportation empire. Casey--his bravery commanded the respect of presidents; his brilliance carved a great new passageway for the world. Hope--her terrifying destiny on the high seas tore her from the arms of the man she married and carried her to the embrace of the man she loved."
