Romance set in Newport, USA, the tale of a returned soldier who has lost an arm and thinks he has lost his love when he sees her drive down the street apparently without a thought of him. All is reconciled when she confesses that she learnt the 'unwomanly' art only to help him. Woman's role, honour, disability, courtship. (PB)
