520    From the author of The Water Dancers and Good Family, an 
       exquisitely crafted novel, set in Ohio in the decades 
       leading to the Civil War, that illuminates the immigrant 
       experience, the injustice of slavery, and the debts human 
       beings owe to one another, witnessed through the endeavors
       of one Irish-American family. Cheated out of their family 
       estate in Northern Ireland after the Napoleonic Wars, the 
       Givens family arrives in America in 1819. But in coming to
       this new land, they have lost nearly everything. Making 
       their way west they settle in Cincinnati, a burgeoning 
       town on the banks of the mighty Ohio River whose rise, 
       like the Givenses' own, will be fashioned by the colliding
       forces of Jacksonian populism, religious evangelism, 
       industrial capitalism, and the struggle for emancipation. 
       After losing their mother in childbirth and their father 
       to a riverboat headed for New Orleans, James, Olivia, and 
       Erasmus Givens must fend for themselves. Ambitious James 
       eventually marries into a prosperous family, builds a 
       successful business, and rises in Cincinnati society. 
       Taken by the spirit and wanderlust, Erasmus becomes an 
       itinerant preacher, finding passion and heartbreak as he 
       seeks God. Independent-minded Olivia, seemingly destined 
       for spinsterhood, enters into a surprising partnership and
       marriage with Silas Orpheus, a local doctor who spurns 
       social mores. When her husband suddenly dies from an 
       infection, Olivia travels to his family home in Kentucky, 
       where she meets his estranged brother and encounters the 
       horrors of slavery firsthand. After abetting the escape of
       one slave, Olivia is forced to confront the status of a 
       young woman named Tilly, another slave owned by Olivia's 
       brother-in-law. When her attempt to help Tilly ends in 
       disaster, Olivia tracks down Erasmus, who has begun 
       smuggling runaways across the river-the borderline between
       freedom and slavery. As the years pass, this family of 
       immigrants initially indifferent to slavery will actively 
       work for its end-performing courageous, often dangerous, 
       occasionally foolhardy acts of moral rectitude that will 
       reverberate through their lives for generations to come.
