| Summary | "The World for Sale, Volume 2" by Gilbert Parker is a novel written during the early 20th century. The narrative appears to revolve around the tensions between two towns, Lebanon and Manitou, and the central character, Max Ingolby, who is a figure of authority and ambition. Ingolby navigates a complex landscape filled with personal vendettas, political power plays, and social strife, particularly involving the antagonistic Felix Marchand. The opening of the novel introduces various characters involved in a brewing conflict, with an intense discussion between Ingolby and Jowett, a horsedealer, about a plot involving threats of violence and sabotage aimed at Ingolby. As they unveil malicious plans, Ingolby reflects on the integrity of his leadership and the chaotic social fabric surrounding him. The narrative quickly weaves through themes of loyalty, strategy, and the personal stakes of the characters, particularly as Ingolby considers how to unify the disparate and hostile towns against common threats, while also revealing his past struggles and his desire for progress amidst chaos.
