The deeply racist members do their best to manipulate the situation, resulting in the loss not only of reputations, but of lives.

But he has trouble acting on his feelings, and the significance of his vote, both social and political, weighs on him. When Elizabeth Lackersteen arrives, blonde, eligible, and anti-intellectual, Flory finds himself the hapless suitor historical fiction.
