This bestseller is a studied creation of high interest situations
designed to provide the
success it has had. Begining with a waifish Scotsman roaming the hinterland of South Africa searching for riches, it moves from
situation to situation designed to create a work of significance. The Scotsman becomes wealthy by stealing bags of diamonds and nearly loses his life in the
process, fathers a daughter in order to disgrace his father in law, starts his empire by following the example of a crook, leaves a fortune to an avaricious child who manipulates her children to pursue the family
wealth and driving her own son mad in the process. One of her two grand-daughters tries to kill the other for the same set of reasons. This is the story of wealth dominating humanity with all the evil results we are familiar with. A perfect tale of what happens when money is king. It is a book to read if you admire success beyond the importance of our human nature.
