The Shoulder of Shasta in Macmillan’s Colonial Library
21 December 1895 · New Zealand Herald
Estate summary
The New Zealand Herald includes The Shoulder of Shasta among Macmillan’s colonial editions. Its brief plot account follows Esse Elstree’s stay in the Californian mountains, her attachment to Grizzly Dick and her eventual return to San Francisco society and an English artist. The notice shows how Bram’s American-set romance was presented to colonial readers shortly after publication. It is primarily a plot description within a books column, not a substantial assessment of the novel’s literary merits.
