The Third Generation — Whitney Stine

Through untold hardship and havoc, the bravehearted Heron clan strove to create a bold heritage from the barren land...wrestling their fortunes from the dark riches that lay deep beneath the earth, until they had established a powerful petroleum empire.

Now, with the dauntless courage of their forbears, the third generation will face far greater crises following the wake of World War II...when they are forced to make supreme personal sacrifices in a fierce and heroic struggle to protect their proud inheritance as...the survivors.
