1900: Or the Last President

1900, or the Last President is a dystopian political novel by Ingersoll Lockwood, written in 1896, that eerily predicts social and economic turmoil in America at the turn of the 20th century. The book follows the rise of an outsider president, populist unrest, and the collapse of the U.S. government. Blending elements of political satire and prophecy, the novel has gained renewed interest in modern times due to its uncanny parallels to contemporary events.
