Ferrier was often called a "Scottish Jane Austen" and was much admired by Sir Walter Scott. The subject of this, her first novel, is marriage--the joys of a happy one contrasted with the evils arising from an imprudent match. The characters who illustrate this theme are well-rounded individuals and often highly comic.
