About this ebook
A young man inherits a fashionable health resort — sulphur baths, diets, cranks and all — on condition that he run it for a year without telling anyone who he is.

Fifty-five plates, from Munch to Chase, catch the resort's verandas, parks and mills in the same comic light Rinehart turns on her sulphur spring.
