An Embarrassment of Riches
An Embarrassment of Riches | James Kunstler
1 post | 1 to read
A picaresque novel of the American West in 1803. An historical comedy about two bumbling botanists sent into the southern wilderness by Thomas Jefferson to look for something that isn't there. A novel in the spirit of Lewis and Clark (who make cameo appearences). Replete with wild Indians, river pirates, the kidnapped son of King Louis XVI, the lost colony of Roanoke, and much more. A non-stop romp full of life and humor and the sensibility of early America.

#Aprella #day21 #CleaninOutMyCloset I see a #librarypurge in my near future if I want any hope of fitting in my overflowing #MountTBR Which means that in the next month or so I‘ll be posting #2ndHandBookGiveaways here on Litsy! I‘d much rather send them to people who‘ll read them, not buy them from charity shops & use them for decoration🙅🏻‍♀️Let me know in the comments if you think it‘s a great idea!

wanderinglynn 👍🏻 I think that‘s a fabulous idea! 🙌🏻 7y
