Publisher's Summary

John Galsworthy's magnificent trilogy of power and passion chronicles the wealthy Forsyte family. As the disintegrating values of the Victorian era progress to World War I and the political uncertainty of the 1930s, the family's material and emotional struggles are set within the dwindling status of the affluent middle-classes. Infused with warmth, compassion, and engaging characters, the complete chronicles are divided into three volumes, containing nine books and four interludes in total.

The third volume of this gripping family saga, End of the Chapter, shifts to the Cherrells - cousins of the Forsytes by marriage. Young Dinny Cherrell in particular cherishes their ancestral home, Condaford Grange, which represents stability in a rapidly changing world. Through his depiction of the lives and loves of this family, Galsworthy throws a brilliant spotlight on the social and political upheavals of the 1930s.

End of the Chapter contains book one: Maid in Waiting, book two: Flowering Wilderness, and book three: Over the River.

Shouldn't be a part of the Forsyte Chronicles

The narrator whose cadence started to bother me in Volumes 1 and 2, drove me nuts by the 3rd.
This Volume didn't really have any of the "old crew" of the Forsyte family as it now focussed on Michael's family. Fleur had a small part of it, but that's it. I think this Volume would've been better to be on its own merit rather than attached to the Forsyte name. If you cared about the Forsyte Family, you could easily end at Volume 2 and not miss a thing.
The writing was good, but not great. The people weren't memorable, and I really couldn't wait to finish this so it would be done and over with.... rather than excitement of reading a book. I felt the stories were drawn out too much and could've been said in a much shorter time.
I wouldn't recommend this book, but I will re-read the first 2 Volumes.
