The Backsliders is a novel written by American author William Lindsey and first published in 1922.

Joel is a successful lawyer and respected member of the community, while Martin is a struggling farmer who has fallen on hard times. The novel explores themes of family, morality, and redemption as the brothers navigate their relationships with each other and the people around them. Joel struggles with his own sense of morality as he becomes involved with a married woman, while Martin grapples with the shame of his financial struggles and the strain it puts on his marriage.As the story unfolds, the brothers' paths diverge and they must each confront their own demons in order to find a way forward. The Backsliders is a poignant and thought-provoking novel that examines the complexities of human nature and the struggle to find meaning and purpose in life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
