- Summary:
- "Freshly unemployed in Kentucky, Winston Alcorn hauls his wife and two young sons deep into Tennessee, not in pursuit of a job, but of his rightful historic destiny. Thus begins a generational saga of mendacious transformations: Winston first becomes the owner of the mill where he intentionally cut off his own hand; then "Wins-a-ton," a showboat auctioneer enshrouded by Confederate myth, endless bluster, and greedy megalomania that soon turns his bloodline into a noose. One son follows in his footsteps and the other battles his shambolic legacy in hopes of a decent life as their father continues to rampage--and their long-suffering mother lies in wait."--publisher description.
