Goplen is a historical account of the life and times of Antoine-Amedee-Marie-Vincent Manca de Vallombrosa, the Marquis de Mores, a French aristocrat who came to the United States in the late 19th century. The book focuses on the Marquis' experiences in the Badlands of North Dakota, where he established a cattle ranching empire and attempted to build a meatpacking plant.
