内容简介

On April 15， 1906， two baby boys entered the world. One was born to a life of prosperity and ease， the other to a world of hardship and struggle. On different sides of the globe， they grew up -- one shaped by a luxurious upbringing， fine schools， and a history he read; the other well tempered by war， slavery， and the history he was part of.William Lowell Kane， scion of a Boston banking family， and Abel Rosnovski， penniless Polish immigrant -- one is gold， the other steel. Rosnovski is Kane s ultimate adversary， while Kane Kane embodies everything that Rosnovski stands against. In their relentless battle， both men know that there can be only one victor -- and one vanquished.Across three generations and around a rapidly changing world， their war rages unchecked， for the love of a dream， the loss of an empire， and the lure of a fortune.

作者简介

杰弗里·阿切尔（Jeffrey Archer）毕业于牛津大学，1969年成为英国当时最年轻的国会议员，后曾任保守党副主席，1992年成为上院终身议员。从1974年第一部长篇小说《一分不多，一分不少》问世起，阿切尔陆续发表了10多部作品，包括长篇小说、短篇小说和剧本多种体裁，题材则不离政坛风云、国际冲突、家族争斗，巧妙的悬念设置、情节推进和适度穿插的情色描写则助阿切尔荣登最畅销作家的宝座。
