In which the Scarecrow goes to search for his family roots and
discovers that he is the Long Lost Emperor of the Silver Island --
and how he was rescued and brought back to Oz by Dorothy and the
Cowardly Lion. Really! In another life, the Scarecrow was the Long
Lost Emperor of the Silver Island. . . . Maybe he was. Who knows?
Maybe not. Remember, this is the first book that's not entirely the
work of L. Frank Baum. How much of it is his? Nobody can say for
certain. But in retrospect, this is the first Oz book that actually
shows us death, albeit of a peculiar sort: before the Scarecrow was
reincarnated as the fluff-headed fellow we all know and love, he
was the Emperor of Silver Island. Which was underground. -- Exactly
beneath that cornfield where Dorothy first found him. But there are
pictures of the place, and the pictures don't look dark enough to
be set in a kingdom made of caves. . . . Hrrrm.
