This concicely written story tells of a child found in the wilds of Africa, and handed over to (of course) a dashing, wealthy, young bachelor, who is given the assignment to make her a lady. Romance takes a backseat to storyline most of the time, (which is a plus for that rare male reader like myself!) Browning wisely chooses to write in modern English, so there is none of that insipid "tis" and "wherefore" talk here, though it is set in the 19th century.
