Summary "Lord Stranleigh Abroad" by Robert Barr is a novel written in the early 20th century. It follows the adventures of Lord Stranleigh, also known as Edmund Trevelyan, as he embarks on a journey across the Atlantic aboard a grand liner, encountering various characters along the way, including a struggling gambler and a mysterious woman in distress. The narrative mixes elements of humor and social observation, highlighting the contrast between the aristocracy and common folk, as well as exploring themes of identity and personal growth. At the start of the story, Trevelyan is introduced as a well-dressed but somewhat aloof young man boarding a steamship destined for New York, accompanied by his disgruntled valet, Ponderby. Upon encountering the Hon. John Hazel, a known cardsharp who has fallen from grace, the two share a tense reunion as Lord Stranleigh expresses concern for his former friend’s well-being. Additionally, Stranleigh meets a distressed young woman who shares the Trevelyan family name; she reveals that she has lost her money and ticket and struggles to maintain her dignity and independence. The opening sets up an engaging social milieu on the ship, hinting at future entanglements and adventures as Stranleigh navigates his journey both physically and socially through unexpected encounters and budding relationships.
