Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Man from Home" by Booth Tarkington and Harry Leon Wilson is a four-act comedy written in 1907. An Indiana lawyer travels to Italy to rescue his young ward from marrying into European aristocracy. He discovers a web of deception involving an English earl, a French countess, and a mysterious Russian exile. As Pike confronts the sophisticated schemers targeting his ward's fortune, he must prove that American common sense can triumph over Old World manipulation—all within twenty-four hours at a Sorrento hotel.
