Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from By What Authority?
To the casual Londoner who lounged, intolerant and im patient, at the blacksmith's door while a horse was shod, or a cracked spoke mended, Great Keynes seemed but a poor backwater of a place, compared with the rush of the Brighton road eight miles to the east from which he had turned Off, or the whirling cauldron of London City, twenty miles to the north, towards which he was travelling.
