Sheppard Lee Written by Himself
Robert Montgomery Bird's Sheppard Lee is a scathingly humorous and utterly original novel out of Andrew Jackson's America, the story of an incorrigible loafer who inadvertently discovers the power to project his soul into dying men's bodies and to take over their lives. So gifted, Sheppard Lee sets off in pursuit of happiness, only to find himself thwarted at every turn.
