The Dissemblers is a novel written by Thomas Cobb and published in 1901. The story is set in the United States during the late 19th century and follows the lives of two brothers, John and Arthur, who are both lawyers. John is a successful attorney who is highly respected in his community, while Arthur is a struggling lawyer who has never been able to find success.As the story progresses, it becomes clear that John is not the honest and upstanding citizen that he appears to be. He has been involved in a number of shady deals and is willing to do whatever it takes to maintain his reputation and position in society. Arthur, on the other hand, is a man of integrity who refuses to compromise his values for personal gain.The novel explores themes of deception, greed, and the corrupting influence of power. It also delves into the complexities of sibling relationships and the ways in which family dynamics can shape an individual’s character.Overall, The Dissemblers is a thought-provoking and engaging novel that offers a glimpse into the social and political landscape of the late 19th century United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
