A romantic fantasy, set in a single night in New York City. Reviewed in Publisher's Weekly for 11/18/1911, where the novel is described as "...a sort of Arabian nights tale involving the extraordinary adventures of a young man who has never known who he really is...[but] during the strange happenings of one night in New York extending from Wall Street to Harlem discovers his own identity, wins the girl, and comes into a fortune." We have noted a variant dustwrapper with a pictorial design, without known priority, though we do note that the price advertised on the spine of our jacket ($1.25) corresponds to the price noted in the book's announcement in PW.
