1800s science fiction weirdness: the adventures of Baron Trump and Don ( conspiracy )

submitted 2017-09-11T23:01 by ReddittRefugee

So a guy named Ralph Ingersoll Lockwood was a New York City lawyer who also wrote novels that were quite popular in their day (the 1890s.)

One of them, Baron Trump's Marvellous Underground Journey has uncanny foreshadowings in it. This video explains:

It's too bad Leigh Scott's Indiegogo project to film the Baron Trump novels didn't get much funding.

The book is out of copyright, and can be downloaded for free:

And the weirdness continues. Lockwood wrote another book about a president who is in office when social collapse happens. It starts with a mob destroying a hotel on New York's 5th Avenue!

You can get that book here:

The books are full of stiff, 1800s writing style, and even though the Baron Trump novels are classified as children's Science Fiction, they make you realize how little science was known in the 1800s compared to our day. They also contain many joke references that only someone familiar with day to day life in the 18090s would "get." But whassup with Lockwood including references to Russia, Trump Castle, Fifth Avenue and virtual dwellers in "Goggle Land?"
