T. Davis Bunn places his novel in an America on the brink of the second depression of the twentieth century. Buddy Korda, a reluctant prophet of the economic disaster, finds himself in Washington, D.C. where he and his friends coordinate the effort to bring America face to face with its heritage and its destiny. This historic movement threatens to transform the current political process. And the Washington power brokers will do anything to keep Korda from succeeding. -- From Amazon.com Product Description
