Book Description
In this novel, he established a setting and story that was to be copied repeatedly both in England and the United States: the stock setting of a mythical Balkan kingdom where a handsome, debonair, well-born, and self-sacrificing English (or American) hero rescues a beautiful princess from various entanglements. It was the kind of novel that perfectly suited the taste of the period, which, in popular fiction, strongly inclined toward a dashing and romantic (if naïve and melodramatic) story and was willing to accept such in a contemporary setting.
