A modern children's classic.
An exciting and educational adventure into America's Gilded Age. Readers describe The Untimely Journey as a modern Wrinkle in Time. Its page-turning plot, with cliffhangers and twists and turns, makes it a favorite with both boys and girls and even older readers. D.M. Sears describes it as a time travel mystery adventure with fun facts and lots of humor - the kind of story I loved to read as a child but brought right up to date. Children's educational topics: American history, honesty, friendship, loyalty, and patriotism. If you liked A Wrinkle in Time, The Hobbit, or any great journey of adventure, you'll love THE WHITE CITY!

Author Biography
D. M. Sears lives and writes in Virginia. He is a pilot who has written several books about flying under the name Michael Bleriot and now three books for younger readers. The Untimely Journey of Veronica T. Boone was born when his niece requested an adventure story for a 12-year-old girl, one that included trains, horses, and Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. She said it should also include the history of America, "but only the interesting parts."
