Samuel Oakley Crawford is a villian and an anti-hero with a story that needs to be told. At every turn, this man from New York state transforms himself into more fascinating characters. At least, 38 identities fleece America, Australia, and New Zealand. Not only does he steal money, he takes with him the hearts of many a fair maiden. Newspapers shout that Oakley has as many as twenty-four wives, but research suggests that the number is slightly over a dozen. Oakley's near photographic memory allows him to recite legal cases spontaneously in both trials as well as political speeches. While delivering sermons, he extemporaneously interjects passages from literature. When name dropping, he has an arsenal filled with hundreds of minor details about the men he is discussing. This arrow in Oakley's quiver grants him heightened credibility. Oakley carries the gift of the Blarney stone with his mesmerizing power of speech. These talents bring Oakley consideration as an ambassador, a United States Senator, and a United States Congressman. The adventure does not stop there. In New Zealand, under the name Arthur Worthington, this "non" prophet establishes a cult so large that the Christian churches stutter and beg his departure. This is a story of a man that could have changed the world, but he had other plans.
