description: England, 1851: With only a handful of gold sovereigns to their names, an idealistic young clerk and his cousin flee a life of drudgery and oppression to seek their destiny in America -- land of promise and plenty.So begins the remarkable journey of Nathan and Leonora Solomon...a journey that will take them from the squalor of London to the glittering gaiety of New Orleans, from the battlefields of the Civil War to the ruins of old Atlanta as, together, they build a retail empire that will become a lasting legacy for their children and grandchildren.Set against the turbulent backdrop of the antebellum South, it is a story of sorrow and struggle, love and loss, stirring passion and searing betrayal...of a family fighting to protect what is theirs even as ugly prejudices rise up to threaten all they have created...all their cherish. In the end, all their hopes for tomorrow rest on their precious DREAMS OF GOLD.
