“The true significance of Lady Mary’s life story, that which gives it value to readers of to-day, is the light it throws on the period in which it was lived, and the fact that ... Lady Mary herself was par excellence a product of her times.”

Paternoster, George Sidney. Lady of the blue motor. $1.50. Page.
7–16942.
An automobile story which does not content itself with the gentle excitements incident to motoring, but which involves a young Englishman, who undertakes to champion a mysterious lady who drives a blue car, in a series of strange complications which do not stop short of murder. The villain, also equipped with a car, is as diabolical as any of his class and the whole story moves at third speed along a highway bristling with dangers to a conventionally happy ending.
“The misprints are sometimes serious. Apart from this, the story is a well-constructed melodrama, interesting in its own way, and with less hysteria and more character-study than one usually finds in books of this type.”
