520    Here, published for the first time, is the complete 
       fragment of Romney together with two of his other 
       unpublished Philadelphia works. Wister set Romney in 
       Philadelphia (called Monopolis in the novel) during the 
       1880s, when, as he saw it, the city was passing from the 
       old to a new order. The hero of the story, Romney, is a 
       man of "no social position" who nonetheless rises to the 
       top because he has superior ability. It is thus a novel 
       about the possibilities for meaningful social change in a 
       democracy.
