Publisher's Synopsis
Another Man's Shoes is a novel written by Victor Bridges and originally published in 1913. The story follows the life of a young man named George Carey who, after the sudden death of his father, is forced to take over the family's struggling business. Despite his best efforts, George finds himself unable to turn things around and is eventually forced to sell the business to a wealthy businessman named James Redford.As he struggles to come to terms with his loss, George begins to see the world in a new light and becomes increasingly disillusioned with the capitalist system that he once believed in. He begins to question the morality of those who have amassed great wealth at the expense of others and starts to see the world through the eyes of the working class.Throughout the novel, Bridges explores themes of class, wealth, and morality, and offers a scathing critique of the capitalist system. The book is a powerful commentary on the social and economic inequalities of the early 20th century and remains relevant today as a reminder of the dangers of unchecked capitalism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
