The Pit (World Digital Library Edition)

ebook
The Pit is the second book in Frank Norris’ The Epic of Wheat trilogy. Expounding on the first novel, The Octopus (1901), about the affect of the railroad on western farm culture, The Pit deals with the exploitation of the wheat market. The third installment, The Wolf, never made it to book form, as The Pit itself was posthumously in 1903 after Norris unexpectedly died as the result of an appendix operation.
