Extract from a three-column review in theSan Francisco Examiner:

“Mr. Hastings has touched the very core ofthe matter respecting the proclivities of our doddering plutocracy.Throughout his book he has revealed that plutocracy in its true lightand shown it to be something utterly conscienceless and debased. Nomore scathing review of the situation, as it is seen at present, couldpossibly be given in a work of fiction.”

SHALL WE HAVE A KING?

Will the United States be a monarchy in 1975? Haveyou read “THE FIRST AMERICAN KING,” by George Gordon Hastings? It isa dashing romance in which a scientist and a detective of today wakeup seventy-five years later to find His Majesty, Imperial and Royal,William I, Emperor of the United States and King of the Empire Stateof New York, ruling the land, with the real power in the hands of halfa dozen huge trusts. Automobiles have been replaced by phaërmobiles;air-ships sail above the surface of the earth; there has been asuccessful war against Russia; a social revolution is brewing. Thebook is both an enthralling romance and a serious sociological study,which scourges unmercifully the society and politics of the presenttime, many of whose brightest stars reappear in the future under thinlydisguised names. There are wit and humor and sarcasm galore—a stirringtale of adventure and a charming love-story.
