Tono-Bungay (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781434494375)

A sharp satire on capitalism and social change, Tono-Bungay follows the journey of George Ponderevo as he helps his uncle build an empire on a worthless patent medicine. As wealth and influence grow, so do the moral compromises. H.G. Wells delivers a compelling critique of ambition, greed, and the fleeting nature of success in this classic novel of the Edwardian era.
