"Striker Godown, a young newspaperman, becomes involved in the Jericho Iron Works strike through his friendship with the strike leader, Mike Strovenik. In spite of his sympathy for the workers, Godwin decides to marry wealthy Lee Renault, leave Jericho and retire to the country to write a novel ... Godown is Bell's epitome of the middle class: quitters when faced with the real problems of the world" - Fay M. Blake, "The Strike in the American Novel." This is, in our experience, this is Bell's most elusive book.
