| Summary |
"The Princess Passes" by C. N. Williamson and A. M. Williamson is a romantic novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Lord Montagu Lane, who has recently been jilted by Helen Blantock, and how he finds refuge and new adventures while traversing through Europe in a motor car. The narrative weaves together themes of love, heartache, and the charm of travel, with a distinct focus on engaging relationships between characters such as Lord Lane and the spirited American heiress, Molly Winston, who share a bond over their experiences in the evolving world of motor travel. At the start of the book, we meet Lord Lane at a dinner party, devastated by his recent heartbreak after Helen's unexpected engagement to Sir Horace Jerveyson. As the night progresses, he receives encouragement from Jack and Molly Winston, who invite him to join them on their motor trip across Europe, starting from London and heading toward Lucerne. The interaction between the characters sets the stage for a journey filled with lively conversations, humorous insights into auto travel, and the exploration of scenic landscapes. With the backdrop of Europe and a cast of engaging personalities, the opening chapters hint at a rich tapestry of adventure and the potential for new romantic entanglements as Lord Lane moves past his initial despair.
