Using the harbor of New York both as the physical background of his story and as a symbol. Mr. Poole tells the story of the life of a young man from childhood to the hour when he becomes converted to the need of the reorganization of society so as to secure social justice. A story which strikes the prevailing note of social unrest, but which is hopeful in tone. — Bacon, Corinne, compiler, Standard Catalog: Fiction Section (1923)
