The rich Countess Marley of Marleyhouse, an eccentric individual, possesses a yacht in which she dwells and sails from one part of the globe to another. ... A relative of the [late] Count, who was thus deprived of a fortune, now sets off to prove that the eccentric Countess is insane, and to that end pursues her on another yacht, accompanied by doctor and lawyer." - Preston Albert Barba; Balduin Möllhausen: the German cooper; page 125. An attractive illustrated copy of this sea adventure, in decorated book cover. ; Balduin Möllhusen, Illustrierte Romane; Vol. 2; 503, 16 ad pages.
