About this listen

 In which a young Englishman named Paul Montague is reluctantly drawn into a grandiose American scheme to promote a vast South Central Pacific and Mexican railway, led by the audacious and garrulous Mr. Fisker, whose ambitions seem more directed at speculation than construction. The enterprise soon takes shape in London with the involvement of several notable figures, including the influential yet enigmatic Mr. Melmotte, whose name alone lends an air of legitimacy to the venture.
