The Time and Again series by Jack Finney begins with Simon Morley, an artist who gets recruited into a secret government project exploring the possibility of time travel. Through self-hypnosis and total immersion in period details, Si travels back to New York City in January 1882. The novel is packed with real historical photographs and illustrations that bring the setting to life.

Finney published the sequel, From Time to Time, in 1995 after readers spent decades asking for a follow-up. The second book sends Si back to 1912 New York, where he encounters the world on the brink of great change. Both novels are loved for their warmth, careful period detail, and a version of time travel that feels grounded and personal rather than flashy.
