Kane and Abel

Two boys born on the same day become rivals for sixty years in a contest for empire.
Reading guide
Start at the opening chapter and read straight through, as this is a complete novel that follows both men from their birth in 1906 onward.
Kane and Abel follows two men born on the same day on opposite sides of the world, one into a Boston banking family and one into poverty in Poland. Their lives are linked by a grudge that becomes a fight for supremacy, with each man pursuing an empire over sixty years and three generations.

Description

William Lowell Kane is born into a Boston banking fortune in 1906. Abel Rosnovski is born into poverty on the other side of the world, the same day. The two seem to have nothing in common, yet a single grudge binds them together and grows into a struggle that runs for sixty years and three generations.

Jeffrey Archer tells the story with a sweeping, old-fashioned sense of pace, following two men who each build an empire, driven as much by hatred of the other as by ambition. It is a big saga of money, rivalry and the American century, with a duel at its heart that is hard to put down.
