Publisher Description

The mega-bestselling novel that made Jeffrey Archer a star, Kane and Abel, “a sprawling blockbuster!”—Publishers Weekly TWO STRANGERS BORN WORLDS APART. ONE DESTINY THAT WOULD DEFINE THEM BOTH... William Lowell Kane and Abel Rosnovski, one the son of a Boston millionaire, the other a penniless Polish immigrant—born on the same day near the turn of the century on opposite sides of the world—are brought together by fate and the quest of a dream. Two men—ambitious, powerful, ruthless—are locked in a relentless struggle to build an empire, fueled by their all-consuming hatred. Over sixty years and three generations, through war, marriage, fortune, and disaster, Kane and Abel battle for the success and triumph that only one man can have. “Archer is a master entertainer.”—Time

"One of the truly great epic stories. One feels it is based more on truth than fiction. The amazing parallel stories of two seemingly divergent characters whose lives intersect at strategic points in the book. Excellent character development and a continued suspense-filled story! "

    " So far, I am amazed at how different this book is from the last one I read by Jeffrey Archer. He is an amazing writer. I am finding this one to be less calloused in its approach. So far, it is an interesting story. I spoke too soon. It was not the type of book I read afterall. <br/> "
