What to read after Americans by Adoption?

There is an Old story, told in many countries through the Middle Ages, of a knight who got into trouble, and was Offered pardon if within a year he brought the correct answer to the question, What do women most desire? At the last moment he saved himself by answering, Their own way, or words to that eect.

This is a man's story, and scores the man's point in the perennial strife of wits between the sexes; but the answer needs but little modification to hold good of men and women alike. When one takes up a book like this, dealing with the lives of men who deliber ately and voluntarily left the homes of their fathers to become citizens of a strange land, one naturally asks what they wanted, and equally naturally goes on to ask what men in general want most in life.
