Paradise Falls Hardcover – January 1, 1968 by Don Robertson
 
"Paradise Falls is an epic chronicle of America -- as overwhelming and teeming with vitality as the nation itself. Written in the tradition of Raintree County, this giant of a novel encompasses 35 years in the life of the small Ohio town of Paradise Falls, from the end of the Civil War to the tumultuous opening of the 20th century.

In this novel, Don Robertson recreates an entire era of American history, an era that saw the stormy end of the profiteer-robber baron and the emergency of the US as an industrial goliath. But it is first and foremost a human and engrossing story for every palate, overflowing with dramatic scenes and memorable characters."
