Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Faith Doctor: A Story of New York
Though there is no life that I know more intimately and none that I have known for so long a period as that of New York, the present story is the first in which I have essayed to depict phases of the complex society of the metropolis. I use the word society in its general, not in its narrow sense, for in no country has the merely so ciety novel less reason for being than in ours.
