Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"A Modern Chronicle — Complete" by Winston Churchill is a novel published in 1910. This best-selling work examines "the problem of the modern woman" in an era shaped by industrialization and fierce business competition. The story follows Honora Leffingwell, who divorces her prosperous stockbroker husband in pursuit of higher social standing, only to remarry a man of ancestral wealth whose true nature proves deceptive. Through Honora's journey, Churchill explores the complexities of divorce and social ambition in early twentieth-century America.
