Title: In the fall
First published: 1999
Description: "Spanning the post-Civil War era to the edge of the Great Depression, In the Fall is a richly layered rendering of a rapidly evolving America from life on the farm, through the final years of Prohibition and bootlegging, to the advent of modern times. Jeffrey Lent illumines the ineluctable connections that exist between black and white, North and South, past and present, as well as the violent collisions they give rise to.

In the Fall is a vision of an American landscape and history, and a portrait of an American family."--BOOK JACKET.
