The Money Moon is a delightful love story. To defeat the "Haunting Spectre of the Might Have Been," the American wealthy hero, George Bellow, goes on a walking tour of the Kent countryside. George finds his ideal "Arcadia" and true love along the road while making friends with a little kid on a quest to find a fortune to save his Aunt Anthea from having to sell the family land.Mutual acquaintances in New York, Newport, and elsewhere eagerly anticipated word of their engagement while Sylvia Marchmont traveled to Europe, followed by George Bellew who was eager to test his newest boat at the same time. They were greatly shocked to find that she would soon wed the Duke of Ryde. Some predicted that he would blow himself up, while others said that he may wed an undesirable "young person" who was unknown. Those who take the time to flip the following pages will learn to what extent these honorable ladies were correct or incorrect in their assumptions.
Autorenporträt
Jeffery Farnol (1878 - 1952) was a British writer from 1907 until his death, known for writing more than 40 romance novels, some formulaic and set in the Georgian Era or English Regency period and swashbucklers. He, with Georgette Heyer, largely initiated the Regency romantic genre. Farnol published his first romance novel My Lady Caprice during 1907. The success of his early novels caused Farnol to become a professional writer. He produced about 40 novels and volumes of stories and some non-fiction and children's books. His last book was completed by his second wife Phyllis. Two of his early books, The Amateur Gentleman and The Broad Highway, have been issued in a version edited by romance novelist Barbara Cartland. The Amateur Gentleman was adapted for British cinema as 1920 and 1936, American cinema as 1926.
