Description
This historical thriller is an equal-parts cocktail of action, adventure, science-fiction and comedy. The book follows a globe-trotting President Taft and Robert Todd Lincoln in a race to solve a mystery stretching back to the Civil War and the Lincoln assassination. Based on true events, readers will find themselves swept into a vast conspiracy spanning four continents and three oceans during the turn of the century. Fascinating technologies will be harnessed, dark secrets revealed, true villains exposed, and some of the most famous figures in history will take the stage. With surprises lurking around every corner, and a vast cast of characters to root for, Jacopo della Quercia's The Great Abraham Lincoln Pocket Watch Conspiracy is a heart-pounding adventure that only history could have made possible.
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
"A cleverly composed and daring steampunk adventure."
—G.D. Falksen, author and historian
"Jacopo is an insight machine. His mind contains museums of fascinating history, and his writing never fails to change the way you look at the world around you.”
—Jack O'Brien, Founder, Editor in Chief and General Manager of Cracked.com
“Amazing…. skillfully weaves together one of the best reads of the year as he combines “real” history with his vivid and somewhat off-beat imagination."
—Tim O’Brien, VP Communications, Ripley’s Believe It or Not!
“If you think Honest Abe and his brethren have been resurrected to death (so to speak), think again; Jacopo della Quercia has brought the speculative presidential yarn to another level.”
—Jason Heller, Hugo Award-Winning author of Taft 2012
