Paul Collins will be on tour for his new book The Trouble With Tom:
The Strange Afterlife and Times of Thomas Paine, a travelogue
following the missing body of America's founding father, whose bones
were stolen by an admirer in 1819 and have been turning up in odd
places ever since—including inside a statue, amid savage dogs and
crazed monkeys, and under a London tailor's stool.
