    Plot Summary
    The story opens 185 years ago when two families, cotton merchants in England and America,
    with branches in France and Prussia swear to stand by each other in a belief
    that a great business firmly established in four countries will be able to withstand
    even such another calamity as the Napoleonic Wars from which Europe is slowly recovering.
    Then many years later, along comes World War One and the years that follow,
    to test the businesses.
