A Rebellious Heroine Summary

| Stuart Harley, despite his authorship of many novels, still considered himself a realist. He affected to say that he did not write his books; that he merely transcribed them from life as he saw it, and he insisted always that he saw life as it was.

How is the future to know what manner of lives we nineteenth century people have lived unless our novelists tell the truth?" |
