Roscoe Weberhauser masterfully mans the helm of this company and he and his family are wealthy beyond compare.About to disown his wayward seventh son, angered at his son's defiance by becoming an attorney working to preserve forests from companies like Roscoe's own and his son's equally detestable marriage and impregnation of a simple Southern girl both now living in a Southern city, a son's ethics and a father's fury at his ideals scorned are being tested.The family legacy is thrown at Roscoe by his hated father on his father's deathbed. Hated father or not, Roscoe cannot deny the need to seek out the larger truth. So he reads it. That journey begins in Czarist Russia, ending in the present.It follows the lives of his forbearers through a battle of sons and fathers sparring repeatedly. Roscoe's head pounds.But the tome is just the first accident of fate awaiting Roscoe. The fall of the second accident solves all for him.Boom, boom, boom and a cry rings out.And then miles afar, a separate cry and the child of Rose Beth and Steven is born.
