American Contemporary Novels
A VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCES
By GERALDINE ANTHONY
This is the fourth of the twelve One-a-Month American Novels to be published during 1901.
"It plunges the reader directly into the social whirl of New York, and the hand that detains one there all through an intensely interesting succession of functions, flirtations, and incidents, ... is the hand of one who has seen something whereof she writes."—New York World.
"There is more than one thinly disguised portrait in its pages—so we are told."—Mail and Express, New York.
"Bobby Floyd is probably the most disagreeable and wholly exasperating cad ever put into an American novel.... There is love-making all through the book."—The Times, Washington, D.C.
"They fall in love amid most delightful surroundings of tennis, boating, and driving."—Exchange.
