During the course of Samuel Hopkins Adams' career as an investigative journalist, he exposed a number of frauds being perpetrated on the American public and came to be known as a champion for the rights of the people. As he transitioned into the domain of fiction, he continued to advocate for causes that were near and dear to his heart. In The Beggar's Purse, Adams makes a compelling—and hilarious—case for thriftiness and prudence in dealing with one's finances.
