BatchellerDescription:A small town, a weekly newspaper, a mother separated from a wayward husband, and her two sons form the basis of the story. One son, Russell, takes over the paper and eventually forces it into bankruptcy. The younger son, Ed, a brawler, is kept from continuing a street fight by a tramp who later turns out to be the father of the boys. Russell sees the error of his ways, goes back to the paper with a "home town" policy, and all is well again.Language:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
