Time and Again

WOW! It's been a long time since I finished a book. This one starts a little slow in exposition of characters and setting, but once it gets going, it really rocks! Commercial illustrator Si Morley is recruited into a secret government project involving hypnosis and time travel. His target: New York City of the 1880's. Can Si travel to this historical world and back again to solve his girlfriend's family mystery? Will he violate the "prime directive" and avoid influencing events to an extent in which people of either time are put in danger? Can he return to the present at all? Historical New York is fascinating--imagine seeing the disembodied arm and torch of the Statue of Liberty in the local park, waiting to be assembled to its body, horse-drawn wagons and coaches, elevated trains that are, well, TRAINS. This is a great read for those who like history and/or government secret projects. :)
