The Man from Brodney's Is Reviewed With Mock Praise
A critical examination of McCutcheon's The Man from Brodney's critiques the author’s fixation on a single Princess trope. The review highlights a familiar hero, a glamorous Princess of Rapp Thorberg, and a plot mixing heirs, islands, and perils while noting the relentless pace and lack of breathing room. Harrison Fisher provides illustrations for the volume.
