Summary:

Joe Gimlet, a Depression-era tobacconist, knows what he would do if he could start life over, go for the dough and all the power and prestige it brings. Surprisingly, Joe gets his chance. A tale of money and happiness that turns comical and cautionary, following Joe as he makes his fortune, amazes peers with his visionary sense of history, and finds jolting and unexpected consequences by abandoning the true love of his prior life. Once the clock has been turned back, can it be set aright?
