A Far Country — Volume 2

A Far Country Volume 2 is a novel. The book follows the career of Hugh Paret from youth to manhood, and how his profession as a corporation lawyer gradually changes his values. This was not my first visit to the state capital. Indeed, some of that recondite knowledge, in which I took a pride, had been gained on the occasions of my previous visits. Rising and dressing early, I beheld out of the car window the broad, shallow river glinting in the morning sunlight, the dome of the state house against the blue of the sky.
