Elswyth Thane’s Riders of the Wind follows Alexandra beyond the confines of an orderly domestic life into a romance shaped by travel and the attraction of adventure. The opening contrasts her husband Clement Marley’s settled expectations with her absence on a foggy London afternoon, establishing a tension between routine and the life she wants.
The novel unfolds in four parts—Fog, Storm, Wind and Sea—whose titles echo the changing circumstances of the story. Personal choices and romantic loyalties develop alongside movement into unfamiliar settings. The appeal of adventure is bound closely to Alexandra’s relationship with Dorin and to her reconsideration of where she belongs.
Published by Frederick A. Stokes in 1926, this complete adult romance retains the original chapter sequence and ending in its unchanged EPUB. The narrative connects the outward journey with an inward decision about companionship, independence and the meaning of a shared life.
