Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Crisis — Volume 05" by Winston Churchill is a historical novel published in 1901. Set in St. Louis during the years before the Civil War, it follows Stephen Brice, a young lawyer with Union sympathies, as he becomes entangled with a Southern family in a deeply divided Missouri. Romantic tensions intertwine with the mounting national crisis over slavery, while Abraham Lincoln's moral authority shapes the destinies of characters caught between North and South. The novel dramatizes how personal loyalties collide with political convictions in America's most turbulent era.
