''John Smith, U.S.A'' is a satirical novel written by Eugene Field and published in 1905. The book tells the story of John Smith, a typical American citizen who is thrust into the political arena and becomes the President of the United States. The novel is a humorous commentary on American politics and society at the turn of the 20th century. Field uses the character of John Smith to poke fun at the political system, the media, and the American people themselves. The book is written in a lighthearted and entertaining style, and is filled with witty observations and clever wordplay. Despite its satirical tone, ''John Smith, U.S.A'' is also a commentary on the importance of individualism and the need for Americans to take responsibility for their own lives. Overall, the book is a humorous and insightful look at American society and politics in the early 1900s.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
