AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Melbourne romance set on the beach at Sandringham; a villa in St Kilda and at the Melbourne Cup at Flemington. Rumours of a gambling escapade seem to have destroyed Arthur Milford's chances of marrying Lilian Carr. At least until Arthur sees her disapproving father collecting his winnings at the Cup and a private arrangement is reached. Arthur also wins £5000 in a sweepstake. Light humour. Entertaining. (PB)
