Publisher's Notes
First Line: "The weather door of the smoking-room had been left open to the North Atlantic fog, as the big liner rolled and lifted, whistling to warn the fishing-fleet."
Industry Reviews
"...delicacy of craft and violence of feeling, exactitude and wild impressionism, subtlety and true innocence."
