Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Mischief-Maker, Vol. 1 of 2
Nobody was considerate enough to tell us that the road to social success lay through Mrs. Laidlaw's front parlour; but, if we had' been told, it would have been without avail, for S'utherland's back is of the cast-iron order, made without a hinge and as for me, ill-health has always permitted me the privileges and' consolations of a bachelor, to whom a lady's drawing-room is a tempt incognita.
