Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cast Adrift
Strange and sad and terrible as are some of the scenes from which I have drawn this veil, I have not told the half of what exists. My book, apart from the thread of fiction that runs through its pages, is but a series bf photographs from real life, and is less a work of the imagination than a record of facts.
