This story “provides a lovely princess with American blood in her veins and ... a pretty will of her own. Also a proper American romantic idea of falling in love with whom she pleases and marrying to suit. But the safety of Europe depends upon her marrying the young Emperor of Rhaetia. What is to be done?... The impressionable Princess Virginia must happen upon the handsome Emperor when she does not know who he is, and he does not know who she is. They will, of course, both of them fall in love at sight. It is always thus. No sooner said than done.”—N. Y. Times.
“The most one can say for it is that it is harmless.”

“No motors in this, but a manner so glib and facile that it resembles nothing so much as the swift revolutions of a new front wheel, when the salesman turns the bicycle upside down and gives a twirl to prove the smooth perfection of its ball-bearings. There is the same near approach to perpetual motion, and the same lack of arriving.”

“The Williamsons have produced another fine, galloping romance of the most approved rose-color order.”
