F. Scott Fitzgerald was the star and spokesman for the decade he called the "Jazz Age, " the 1920's -- the "greatest and gaudiest spree in history" which saw "a whole race going hedonistic, deciding on pleasure." It all crashed, and with it came a severe poisoning of "the American dream." In his masterpiece The Great Gatsby, he warns of the corruption of values and the decline of spiritual life. Fitzgerald's writing is looked on today by millions as prophetic. This book is a look at what he so masterfully exposed and its aim is to apply the ageless Scriptures to the emptiness of hedonism and show how we can be led to make the right choices, to travel on the right road and to know a sure and steadfast hope in the midst of a Western civilization that is selling its very soul for the transient.Derick Bingham is the author of 'A Voice Full of Money', published 2001 under ISBN 9781889893631 and ISBN 1889893633.
