Knopf, an imprint of the Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, a division of Penguin Random House, LLC"--Tltle page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The Fields </em>tells the story of Sayward as a wife and mother, working with her own brood on that hard frontier to create a durable home, and aspects of civilization in a region where life is still difficult and towns are just beginning to appear. It is a rich and human novel about personal conflicts and strife in the midst of a land that itself is striving. And it has an epic quality that perfectly reflects the sweeping conquest of the frontier.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>The novel is an accurate, deeply understood picture of early Ohio. --Sterling North, <i>Book Week</i><br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Before becoming one of America's greatest novelists, <b>Conrad Richter</b> (1890-1968) worked driving a wagon over the mountains of Pennsylvania, in a machine shop, in a small-town bank, on a farm, in his own timber business, and reporting for newspapers, among other jobs.
