Synopsis

""Smoked Glass"" is a novel written by Orpheus C. Kerr, an American humorist, and journalist. The book tells the story of a young man named Frank Vanderlyn, who leaves his hometown in search of adventure and success in New York City. Frank soon finds himself caught up in the world of high society, where he meets a beautiful woman named Fanny Fernleaf and falls in love with her. However, their relationship is threatened by the scheming of Fanny's jealous husband, who will stop at nothing to keep them apart. Along the way, Frank also encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a wealthy financier, a corrupt politician, and a group of bohemian artists. Through it all, Frank must navigate the complexities of love, ambition, and social status in order to find his place in the world. ""Smoked Glass"" is a witty and satirical novel that offers a glimpse into the social and cultural landscape of mid-19th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works.

This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue.
