1913. Part Twelve of Eighteen Volumes. Gilbert, Canadian-born novelist and politician, his literary reputation lies primarily on his earlier descriptive, dramatic and historic Canadian stories. He moved to England in 1889 and later served in Parliament. Parker explains that in this edition of his work, each volume will have a special introduction setting forth, as far as possible, the relation of each work to the author, to its companion works, and to the scheme of his literary life. The Right of Way is about the character of Charley Steele who is a type, an idiosyncrasy of modern life, the result of forces all round us, demanding space in which to live and tell his story to the world. It is also a romance about the relationship between Charley and Rosalie. This novel marks a new epoch in the author's literary life in which he reaches a more intimate understanding and analysis of his characters.
