Against the charmingly sketched background of a little French-Canadian town, the author traces with pathos, yet with whimsical humor, the development of the character of Jean Jacques Barbille, miller and money master, whom many misfortunes sadden but cannot discourage.
— Bacon, Corinne, compiler, Standard Catalog: Fiction Section (1923)
