A Hazard of New Fortunes — Volume 5 by William Dean Howells
"A Hazard of New Fortunes — Volume 5" by William Dean Howells is the fifth volume of a novel published in 1889. This installment continues the story of Basil March, who moved from Boston to New York to help launch a literary magazine. As tensions escalate between socialist ideals and capitalist interests, the narrative builds toward a violent streetcar strike that brings together the magazine's diverse characters—wealthy owners, impoverished intellectuals, and idealistic
humanitarians—in a dramatic confrontation that will forever change their lives. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
