Mr. Roberts certainly has versatility, since this book has not a single
point of similarity with either "Rachel Marr" or his well-known sea
stories. Its setting is the English so-called "upper crust" of the
present day. Lady Penelope is quite the most up-to-date young lady
imaginable and equally charming. As might be expected from such a
heroine, her automobiling plays an important part in the development of
the plot. Lady Penelope has a large number of suitors, and her method
of choosing her husband is original and provocative of delightful
situations and mirthful incidents.
