Description
Pride Dawson was one of those "Robber Barons" whose brazen contempt for human
decency or moral restraint left a legacy of the "public be damned" that
continues as the cornerstone of American public policy even today. Ethically
bankrupt and corrupt beyond comprehension, the robber barons perverted economic
and political processes, converted the public good to their server their own
personal ends and acquired untold riches from the misery and suffering of
workers. Dawson built his empire by destroying all who opposed him. With plunder
as a goal and power as an instrument, Pride's Castle depicts a man with an
unbounded appetite for ruthlessness. And it also tells of his boundless love for
Sharon O'Neill, a woman with as much goodness in her soul as he had evil.
