This is Grant Allen’s first published novel, and it reflects his point of view as a socialist and an agnostic.  It is a satire on socialism and modern journalism. According to Elizabeth Miller in her Slow Print (2013), “In the radical press it was assumed that even a genuinely socialist novel would reach only middle-class readers.  J. Hunter Watts’s 1888 review of Grant Allen’s Philistia considers it ‘the best Socialist novel we have read’ but dryly notes that it ‘would have done us invaluable service in propaganda among the middle and upper classes, ‘who alone have leisure for novel reading,’ except that those classes are so unlikely to be swayed.”   Grant Allen Pears' Soap http://omeka.philaathenaeum.org/yellowbacks/files/original/5ce0d673037d1cd4159de868f4607d15.jpg 2f39474ecc013d88b0821d059f0f40e8 http://omeka.philaathenaeum.org/yellowbacks/files/original/f3d0e4895db297396a5fc746b00e9b8a.jpg dc71b557a22eae0787808c73902159d4 Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.

Sir George Kerr, a nouveau riche, the desire of whose heart it is to become connected with the peerage, takes up the cause of one Wardlaw, who claims to be the representative of an earldom that is supposed to be extinct, with the idea that the Earl, his dignity once attained, will marry his daughter.

Riddell.” This is another of Mrs. Riddell’s ghost stories with rather ordinary characters: law clerks, pensioners, real estate speculators, and developers. It seems at first to concentrate on the legal practicalities of renting out a house known to be haunted. The ghost is identified as an unscrupulous moneylender who attempted to ruin the wrong man and was killed for his efforts. Mrs. J. H.
