What is Beecher : a Novel about?

When asked, Who is the American of our time? Abraham Lincoln said, Beecher. Henry Ward Beecher, golden-tongued pastor of Brooklyns Plymouth Church, whose sermons made the multitudes gasp and swoon, was a celebrated public figure and peerless moral force. Thus the nation was flabbergasted when the eminent Beecher was accused of seducing the wife of his protg. This spirited, highly original novel re-creates the tumult of the Beecher trial, bringing on a marvelous cast of characters. First and foremost is Beecher himself, staunch abolitionist and early supporter of the feminist movement, outrageous in his own defense, sniffing violets and dropping them to the floor at telling moments.
