The Gilded Age (World Digital Library Edition)

ebook
The Gilded Age, which Twain wrote in collaboration with Charles Dudley Warner, is a romantic story set in the time of Ulysses S. Grant's presidency which is highly critical of his administration. Though some of the characters are memorable, this novel never reached the level of popularity or critical acclaim of Twain's other fiction. Twain's portion of the novel was later published separately and some play adaptations were based on his character Colonel Sellers. Although the book was not particularly well-received, its title provided the name by which the post-Civil War boom era in American history is still known.
