From the flap: Ragtime is set in America at the beginning of this century. Its characters: three remarkable families whose lives become entwined with people whose names are Henry Ford, Emma Goldman, Harry Houdini, J.P. Morgan, Theodore Dreiser, Sigmund Freud, Emiliano Zapata. It is a novel so original, so full of imagination and subtle pleasure, that to describe it further would only dilut the pur joy of reading it. Turn to the first page. Begin.
