Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Saint in Mufti: A Novel
The Major, it will be seen, had a nice aesthetic sense, even though he happened to be one of those unfortunate persons whose ideas are more profound than their purses. But, said he, I am a man of the world, and the world is an Open book of life wherein all may read, but which, happily, only the few read to advantage. I am one of the few. Though what advantage he had ever gained was as nebulous as the gold pieces in his pocket.
