Published in 1891, this was Eggleston's final novel, before he turned his hand exclusively to history. Here Eggleston satirizes the wealthy followers of Christian Science and faith healing. "The book was not written to depreciate anyone's valued delusions," he writes in his Preface, "but to make a study of human nature under certain modern conditions."
