The Wildes: A Novel in Five Acts

It’s hard to imagine anyone doing this sort of imaginative historical reconstruction better than Bayard, who did it superbly once before in Jackie & Me. A sometimes elegiac but mostly tragic recreation of one of the great what-ifs of literary history. Readers will find it difficult to put down.

Jackie & Me

Bayard (Courting Mr. Lincoln) is a master of historical fiction; this exquisite book is no exception. This is a love triangle in which the future president is tragically incapable of fully returning the love given to him by both Jackie and Lem. A necessary purchase for public libraries.

Roosevelt's Beast

Recommended for lovers of historic fiction with a touch of the macabre. ["Bayard describes this skillfully crafted novel as 'a psychological fantasy built out of historical events.' His nightmarish tale, reminiscent of Scott Smith's The Ruins, will appeal to fans of Dean Koontz and all those who like their adventure tinged with horror," read the review of the Holt hc, LJ 12/13.]
