AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Tale of the narrator's bohemian youth as a hack artist in London in 1872, his near loss of his worldly possessions through gambling, and a decision to give it up after his horse fails to win the Derby. Emigration to New Zealand and hard work brings him success and the faithful Lucy as his wife. Interesting side comments on status, class and the artist in England and New Zealand. (PB)
