The North won the Civil War, but it took a Jefferson Davis to reunite the nation. It's 1876, the last days of postwar Reconstruction in the South, when a nineteen-year-old artistic prodigy from Georgia, with a troublesome name, heads to Yankee Philadelphia and the country's first World's Fair since the Civil War. A call for artists to participate in the Fair's art exhibit, the largest in the nation, sends Thomas J. on his way. A hilarious coming-of-age story follows, with a cast of illustrious characters and more than a few mishaps and amusing encounters. Ultimately, Jefferson Davis takes Philadelphia in this madcap fictional romp, where anything can happen - and very nearly does - in this historical farce.
