It is the Law
A story of marriage and divorce in New York. By Thomas Edgar Willson.
"It is the Law" is a unique novel. That it contains a libel in every chapter is probably an exaggeration, but it certainly conveys that impression to the average reader. If the law on divorce and marriage of New York state is in the complex muddle that Mr. Willson depicts it, then there are extenuating circumstances for Mr. Willson placing in our hands a novel which shows that a man may have, and does have, as many legal wives as his sense of propriety or pleasure desires. The same state of things also applies to women. It is indeed strong meat, dished up in a fearless, too plain manner.—A Critic.

"Mr. Elder's book is a compound of sound argument, apt illustration, noble sentiment and vigorous language."—Inter Ocean, Chicago.
