More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Harold Robbins, the world's most popular and captivating storyteller, has created what may well be the most significant book ever written about the rise of the labor unions. The 1979 novel, freshly re-released, is the saga of Daniel Boone "Big Dan" Huggins, who rises from poverty and the mines of West Virginia to become the most respected and feared labor organizer in the nation. Daniel's life and death are tied to the challenges and fortunes of American labor. Once he is gone, his youngest son Jonathan must take up the reins of his father's cause, returning to Daniel's roots to better understand the path that led him to his destiny. Robbins has a gift for combining popular fiction with the most pertinent subjects of the twentieth century, to create a snapshot of the time. Relevant, respectful, and very readable, Memories of Another Day proves once again why Harold Robbins' books have sold more copies than any other American writer in history.

This book is what signifies Harold Robbins as one of the best writers. This was Harold Robbins at his best. The story is about Big Dan and the legacy he left, but he never really left, his story was told through his son, who hated his father-Big Dan, because he never truly understood him, but in the end........well you just have to read it. This is a book you will take everywhere with you, because you simply must know what happens next. I promise you, you will not be disappointed at all.

This is the life story of Big Dan Huggins, a hillbilly kid who worked his way up to be a major labor leader. It tells of his dedication to his kid sister beyond the call of what's expected of a big brother until she found Mr. Right, his estrangement from his only son until he died and the younger Huggins gained a new understanding of him. If you think "The Carpetbaggers" and "The Adventurers" was the extent of what Harold Robbins was about as a writer, read this, his "Herman Wouk book".
