The Mayor of New York: A Romance of Days to Come is a science fiction novel written by Louis Pope Gratacap in 1910. The story is set in New York City in the year 2020, where the city has become a utopia with advanced technology, clean streets, and a government that is run by the people, for the people. The protagonist, John Ward, is a young man who is elected as the Mayor of New York City. He is tasked with leading the city and making decisions that will benefit everyone. However, he soon realizes that the city is not as perfect as it seems. There are still people who are unhappy and dissatisfied with their lives, and there are those who are trying to overthrow the government. John must navigate through these challenges while also dealing with his own personal struggles. The book explores themes of politics, power, corruption, and the human condition. It is a thought-provoking novel that offers a glimpse into what the future may hold for society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
