The Market Place is a novel written by American author Harold Frederic. It was first published in 1899 and is set in the fictional town of Octavius, New York, during the late 19th century. The story follows the lives of two families, the Minsters and the Careys, who are part of the town's upper class. The patriarchs of both families, Austin and Oliver, are successful businessmen who are in constant competition with each other.The novel explores themes of love, ambition, greed, and social class. The Minsters and the Careys are both striving to maintain their status in society and gain more power and wealth. However, their pursuit of success leads to conflict and tragedy.The Market Place also delves into the lives of the town's working-class residents, who struggle to make ends meet and are often overlooked by the wealthy elite. The novel highlights the stark contrast between the two classes and the impact of their actions on each other.Overall, The Market Place is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that offers a glimpse into the social and economic dynamics of small-town America during the late 19th century.A sudden rage at Kervick flamed up. He clearly had played the fool--clumsily over-plying the simpleton with drink till he had killed him. The shadow of murder indubitably hung over the thing. And then--the crass witlessness of telegraphing! Already, doubtless, the police of Edinborough were talking over the wires with Scotland Yard. A reference to a death in Edinborough, in a telegram from Newcastle--it was incredible that this should escape the eye of the authorities. Any minute might bring a detective through that door there.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
