The Gilded Age A Tale of Today - Charles Dudley Warner - Bog

The only book that Mark Twain ever wrote in collaboration with another author, The Gilded Age is a novel that viciously and hilariously satirizes the greed, materialism, and corruption that characterized much of upper-class America in the nineteenth century. The title term-inspired by a line in Shakespeare's King John-has become synonymous with the excess of the era.
