About this book
Motoring was still a novelty when Louis Tracy set this cheerful romance on Derby Day, and much of its charm comes from the open road. Cynthia Vanrenen, a spirited young American touring England with her chaperon, finds her plans upset when the hired chauffeur cannot appear. A well-bred young man of reduced means quietly takes the wheel, and a leisurely tour through the countryside turns into a courtship neither quite admits to at first. Mistaken assumptions, class differences, and a rival or two supply the gentle obstacles. Tracy keeps things light and good-humored throughout, offering the kind of comfortable Edwardian escapism his readers loved.
