“Upon the purely social aspects of the liquor problem the book is not as complete as one could desire. One or two absurd statistical errors have crept into the text. On the whole, then, the work will be found exceedingly valuable for the scientific student of the liquor problem, and will furnish a mass of useful and reliable facts for the practical temperance reformer.” Charles A. Ellwood.

The hero of this novel is, at the opening of the story, a penniless outcast. He quarrels with a stranger, fancies he has killed him, puts on his clothes, takes his money, and comes to New York where he begins a new life and wins wealth and friends. Of course the stranger is not dead, but crosses the hero’s path again and there are complications galore and a much entangled love story.
