Trama

This is a book that looks at man as an ape in mufti. Satire of the purest Swiftian style, but gentler. Whereas Gulliver traveled far and met many sizes, shapes, and manner of men to throw light on the human comedy, Clarence Day travels back in time to examine the species existing 'after the great saurians had been swept from the scene' and pick a winner in the evolutionary sweepstakes.
