Cover of William Dean Howells: The Leatherwood God (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

Based on an incident in Ohio that had always fascinated him, The Leatherwood God tells the intriguing tale of how a charlatan named Joseph Dylks, claiming to be a messenger of God (or even God himself), exploited the pious townspeople, split their devout community in two, and then disappeared.
