description: What would really happen if a person from our time went into the distant past? Robert L. Plunkett, in A California Dreamer in King Henry's Court, carries that premise to its logical conclusion. Harold Hurgood, and innocent pawn in a lunatic scheme to change history, is thrust into the most dramatic year in the reign of England's most infamous king, Henry VIII. Henry has already torn England from its mother church, and has seized power never before held by an Englishman. In the spring, he will judicially murder his Queen Anne Boleyn, along with several others, possibly even Harold Hurgood. Hurgood knew 1535 wouldn't be like home, but he never expected it to be like this. Popular literature assumed that a modern mand sent back in time could revolutionize the past with advanced thought, inventions and modern wonders. However, the past is not what they said it would be. A California Dreamer in King Henry's Court is a glimpse at a different world. It is an imaginative funny and sometimes touching story about a modern man's adventure in interesting times. This is a time travel novel that turns the genre on its head. It's bound to please history buffs and people who only want a good read.
