The desperate circumstances of a hard working railroad engineer are chronicled in this novel. After killing his wife and her paramour he is sentenced to life on a Southern chain gang where the inmates are tortured and tormented by their captors.

Jim Tully has largely been forgotten today, but during the 1920s and 1930s he was considered one of Americas best writers, routinely ranked with Hemingway and Fitzgerald as a true American voice.

This Ring eBooks edition of this forgotten American classic is DRM free.

What the Critics Said:

The emotion of the author is a driving force that makes the story well worthwhile. The Saturday Review

If Tully were a Russian, read in translation, all the professors would be hymning him. He has all of Gorkys capacity for making vivid the miseries of poor and helpless men, and in addition he has a humor that no Russian could conceivably have. - H.L. Mencken
