| Synopsis | Charles Schuyler, the young journalist from Gore Vidal's BURR, is here 30 years older, and returning to the US from Europe with his fortune obliterated by the panic of 1873. He must now actively pursue a journalistic career and also find a husband for his daughter, Emma, a widow. Mostly, he must help Tilden get elected president, because then Schuyler will be assured of a diplomatic post in France.
| | Size | | Height: | 9.8 in. | | Width: | 6.5 in. | | Thickness: | 1.2 in. | | Weight: | 25.6 oz. |
| | Publisher's Note | Returning to America after his long European sojourn, Charlie Schuyler, Aaron Burr's unacknowledged son, and Charlie's widowed daughter seek financial and political advancement in the Centennial power centers, as republican idealism is giving way to imperial expediency.
| | Industry reviews | "[This book] should and will be bought and read and kept and reread by anybody with a taste for words....[He] is a writer of such supreme ability that he can...write about virtually nothing, as he does in the first half of '1876', and it can be compelling reading. And then he can take history, as he does in the second half of the book, and make it powerful and astonishing."
Harper's - Jimmy Breslin (03/19/1976)
