Cimarron
Rreth këtij libri elektronik
Oklahoma Territory, 1889. Criminal lawyer Yancey Cravat and his wife, conventional and well-bred Sabra, stake their claim to their new home in Osage. From the very start, they face overwhelming odds to create a prosperous life for themselves. As they establish themselves in this untamed land, Sabra displays a brilliant business sense and makes a success of their local newspaper—all amidst border and land disputes, outlaws, and the discovery of oil.
In this sweeping tale, Edna Ferber brings the challenges of settling on the American frontier vividly to life. Originally published in 1929, Cimarron was the basis for the Academy Award-winning film starring Best Actor nominee Richard Dix and Best Actress nominee Irene Dunne.
