The Temple of Music

A sweeping historical novel brings together real-life and fictional characters in an evocative study of America at the turn of the twentieth century, a world marked by a dramatic division between rich and poor where Leon Czolgosz, an alienated factory worker and an ardent admirer of Emma Goldman, plots to assassinate President McKinley at the 1901 Buffalo World's Fair. Reader's Guide included. Reprint. 10,000 first printing.
