The Prophetic Works of Ingersoll Lockwood: Baron Trump’s Marvellous Underground Journey and 1900; Or, the Last President
Printed with all original illustrations. Ingersoll Lockwood's two books, Baron Trump's Marvellous Underground Journey & 1900; Or, The Last President, have seen a resurgence in interest since Donald Trump's election to President of the United States in 2016. Both books were written before the turn of the 20th Century, but both contain eerie similarities with modern day political events. For the first time, both works are presented in a single volume so readers can decipher for themselves whether Lockwood's words were a telling of things to come, or just a curious coincidence of American literature. Lockwood's Baron Trump character shares a similar name to President Donald Trump's youngest son Barron Trump. Baron, in the novels written by Lockwood, is a wealthy young prince living in "Castle Trump." He takes on magical adventures in a series of stories after Don, the "master of masters," shows him a secret portal in Russia which leads to various enchanted worlds Baron goes on to explore. In 1900; Or, The Last President, Ingersoll Lockwood paints the picture of a politically charged New York City, where a political outsider has overcome stiff opposition to be elected President of the United States. Mob rule threatens, and marching protests rove up and down Fifth Avenue. The scene is an uncanny reflection of what happened as Donald Trump spent his days as President Elect holed up in Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue as he awaited his inauguration.

The Road to Oz
Well, my dears, here is what you have asked for: another "Oz Book" about Dorothy's strange adven-tures. Toto is in this story, because you wanted him to be there, and many other characters which you will recognize are in the story, too. Indeed, the wishes of my little correspondents have been considered as carefully as possible, and if the story is not exactly as you would have written it yourselves, you must remember that a story has to be a story before it can be written down, and the writer cannot change it much without spoiling it.

The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle
ALL that I have written so far about Doctor Dolittle I heard long after it happened from those who had known him - indeed a great deal of it took place before I was born. But I now come to set down that part of the great man's life which I myself saw and took part in. Many years ago the Doctor gave me permission to do this. But we were both of us so busy then voyaging around the world, having adventures and filling note-books full of natural history that I never seemed to get time to sit down and write of our doings.
