Elizabeth (Alaska) | 214 comments Published in 1862, this satirical novel concerns a partnership in a haberdashery between Brown, a retired dealer in butter, Jones his son-in-law, and Robinson, a great believer in advertising. Due to Brown's timidity, Jones' wrongdoing and Robinson's extravagance, the business soon becomes bankrupt.
