When Teddy Roosevelt imposes strict treason and censorship laws in the name of security, Sam Clemens fights back with a wave of anonymous pamphlets. As even his friends betray him, Sam realizes just far the flag has fallen–But is there anything he can do about it? The American in His Season blends original fiction with excerpts of public domain and historical documents to paint a 1900 America that resonates with Robert Bolt’s A Man for All Seasons as much as it does our own post-9/11 world. A must-read for fans of Mark Twain, alternate history, and anyone–right or left–who worries about the direction America is going.
