Ilustration Toward Books Fortune is a Woman

The three met in the aftermath of San Francisco's devastating 1906 earthquake--the Mandarin Lai Tsin, a runaway American heiress, and a young Englishwoman. Against all odds they made their dreams come true, building one of the world's largest trading companies and most luxurious hotels... They had only each other--and bloody secrets to bury even as they rose to dizzying heights, wary of love yet vulnerable to passion in its most dangerous forms... The Mandarin would pass his multi-billion-dollar empire only to the women in the Lai Tsin dynasty--along with one last devastating truth....

Sweeping from the turn of the century through the 1960's, from the Orient to San Francisco and New York, Elizabeth Adler has written a magnificent novel of new wealth and old privilege, family passions and secret shame, of women surviving, triumphant, in the riveting saga of romantic intrigue.

Column Appertaining To Books Fortune is a Woman

My aunt recommended this book to me several years ago, when I was still a teenager. I read it, forgot about it, but remembered little points to the plotline. I picked it up again in my early twenties and I've read this book several times since and I'm always impressed by the strength of the characters and the grace that they show under pressure. Definately one of my favorites!

Great saga...reads like a good soap opera. Loved it.

Will always be one of my very favorite books.I read it many years ago and then more recently. Love, love, love it!!

Gave it two for you Bon Bon or would have given 1. Too romance novel for me...sorry!

Really interesting and adventurous story.

So at first I thought this book was a bit simply written...kind of like a Danielle Steel book. I continued reading it because it takes place in San Francisco starting right before the 1906 earthquake so I was finding it pretty entertaining and the story drew me in. As I read on, I found myself at times cringing at the injustices the heroine of the story continually had to endure and the book really took the position that most of the men back then were extremely misogynistic (especially the

Amazing. I didn't want the book to end!! The ending was great. I would highly recommend this book to everyone. All the women in the book I loved.
