About This Book
"In this novel is told the story of Maniwel Drake, who has lost an arm; but maintains his cheerful and genial nature, and Baldwin Briggs, whose motto is "All for my-sen." The story deals with one of those contrasts of conflicting personalities that Mr. Riley loves to draw. There are dramatic episodes as well as character studies, and the local colour that Mr. Riley loves to introduce"
