It is a time when one is filled with vague longings; when one dreams of flight to peaceful islands in the remote solitudes of the sea, or folds his hands and says, What is the use of struggling, and toiling and worrying any more? let us give it all up." - Mark Twain, Charles Dudley Warner, The Gilded AgeIn post-Civil War America, everyone wants to get rich.

Book excerpt: The Gilded Age: A Tale of Today is a novel by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner first published in 1873.
