The 1800 Club

The 1800 Club is a 21st Century haven for people seeking to escape New York City's frantic pace. Dressed in clothes their ancestors might have worn during the 1800s, members enjoy foods of the period and read periodicals featuring news of a particular date in 1865. However, the 1800 Club also has an astounding secret; Time Travel. Members travel back in time nudging famous persons and key events just enough to ensure history unfolds as it should. Guardians-of-the-future, who send robotic probes back through the ages, discover that, at critical time-junctures, pivotal figures stray from vital tasks and actions. Then an 1800 Club member is sent back to guarantee that events get back on track. Lincoln, Roosevelt, Bat Mastersen, Mark Twain and many others are aided by The 1800 Club's members. Without subtle interventions by these unknown agents, the famous might have been only footnotes, rather than giants of history.
