A vivid picture, in Mr. Page’s fascinating style, of conditions and manners existing among the gentlefolk of old Virginia.
“Mr. Page’s book is one of these bits of literature that reflect the undergleams of a nation’s life, and whatever may sound boastful in the telling must be forgiven upon the ground that the sources of his inspiration were very dear and very worthy.”
—Philadelphia Call.
