A cohesive collection of stories and essays, A New Gilded Age contains an insightful commentary on American culture, politics, and history. By blending all three elements, this book holds the reader’s interest through each scenario.

Following short stories that capture memorable moments of time and events are essays broad in scope and perception. They include, among others, observations on the American Revolution; the great and unappreciated nitrogen fix; unfairness pervading today’s Gilded Age; wickedness in human affairs demanding retribution; a second look at second chances. All forge a deeper consideration.
