Roast Beef, Medium follows the adventures of Emma Mc Chesney—a divorced, independent, traveling saleswoman for a skirt and petticoat company. The stories, originally published in American Magazine between 1911 and 1913, brought Ferber her first big success. She went on to publish two additional volumes of Emma’s adventures and adapt them into a Broadway play.
