Set against the backdrop of the Chicago Board of Trade, this novel explores the intense world of wheat speculation and the dynamics of trading pits. As the second installment in the Epic of Wheat trilogy, it delves into the economic and social implications of the wheat industry, following the themes established in the first book, The Octopus. Although the trilogy remains unfinished with the third book, Wolf, the narrative captures the tumultuous spirit of the era and the impact of commerce on human lives.
