This novel by Thorne Smith (1892-1934) was originally published in 1932 in the USA. This e-text has been scanned from Penguin's 1957 edition. To the best of my knowledge and belief all European copyright in this work, including editorial copyright in this edition, has now expired.

During the OCR process numerous spelling and grammatical errors were corrected, but some were probably missed. For scholastic purposes you are strongly advised to refer back to the original text.
