SIX-SHILLING NOVELS.
THE HATANEE. Arthur Eggar.
BEAUJEU. H.C. Bailey.
"The historical romance, which has long been threatened with decay, seems as lively as ever since its resuscitation by Stevenson. Mr. Bailey is one of the foremost exponents, and this new work is quite his best. 'Beaujeu' is thoroughly to be commended to admirers of romance. There is no contemporary writer who could have done better than this, and there are few who could have done so well.... A work full of vigour and fire, deft invention, and knowledge of the time, and it has a real live interest, not merely a perfunctory one."—Athenæum.
THE HILL. Horace A. Vachell.
"The best book about schoolboys since 'Tom Brown.'"—Daily News.
"The work of a courageous writer and a masterly."—Vanity Fair.
BROTHERS. Horace A. Vachell.
"A novel that should not be missed."—Daily Telegraph.
"A book to love and to live in awhile, and a book which will not lightly be forgotten."—Westminster Gazette.
JOHN CHARITY. Horace A. Vachell.
"A nineteenth century 'Westward Ho!'"—Sheffield Daily Telegraph.
THE SHADOWY THIRD. Horace A. Vachell.
"An excellently well-written and well-conceived novel."—Athenæum.
THE PINCH OF PROSPERITY. Horace A. Vachell.
"We have nothing but praise for this book. We have read every word of it, and can conscientiously recommend it."—Ladies' Field.
RAW MATERIAL. Miss Phyllis Bottome.
"These 'characters and episodes among working lads' are exceptionally good. The author's rare sense of humour never degenerates into flippancy, nor her pathos into sentimentality. 'The Chitter' is delightful throughout, and the climax is exquisite.... Indeed, the great charm of the book is that we are given facts, not theories, nor 'patent remedies.'"—Guardian.
THE RED-HAIRED WOMAN. Miss Louise Kenny.
"A cleverly written romance."—Outlook.
"A crisp, clever book."—Liverpool Daily Post.
IN THE ARENA. Booth Tarkington.
"Capital stories.... 'Hector' is a truly magnificent character study.... It is, we think, one of the truest, most ironic, and most telling studies in modern American fiction."—Daily Graphic.
A QUIXOTIC WOMAN. Isobel Fitzroy.
"The author arrests and holds the attention of the reader from the first."—World.
IN THE STRAITS OF HOPE. Eleanor Cropper.
"We shall be surprised if Miss Eleanor Cropper's brilliant novel does not achieve an exceptional success."—Court Journal.
THE GREATNESS OF JOSIAH PORLICK. Anon.
"This is a fine book."—Times.
THE VEIL OF THE TEMPLE. W.H. Mallock.
"We have rarely seen the connection between civilization and the postulates of religion more convincingly or incisively emphasized."—Athenæum.
FORT AMITY. A.T. Quiller-Couch.
"A high-pulsing tale of bodily adventure.... It is interesting throughout."—Times.
TRISTRAM OF BLENT. Anthony Hope.
"There is an originality of construction, of character, and of dialogue ... often epigrammatic, often paradoxical, but still more often delightfully humorous."—Times.
SABRINA WARHAM. Laurence Housman.
"The book has much that is true and beautiful."—Morning Post.
THE LITTLE NEIGHBOUR. Mary Deane.
"A fresh, original piece of work, ... a story which we follow with excited curiosity, ... a sweet oasis in the arid desert of modern fiction, and a book that will be remembered when the names of most of the productions of Miss Deane's contemporaries have long been forgotten."—Court Journal.
THE ROSE SPINNER. Mary Deane.
"An exceptionally well-written story."—Outlook.
TREASURE AND HEART. Mary Deane.
"A charming story."—Times.
HENRY BROCKEN. W.J. de la Mare.
"It has been reserved for Mr. de la Mare, if not to create, at any rate to develop, with remarkable skill and picturesqueness, a form of traveller's tale which should appeal to an age thirsting for a fresh literary sensation, and bewailing the absence of any new thing under the sun, with all the charm of an original discovery."—Spectator.
LESLIE FARQUHAR. Rosaline Masson.
"The most attractive Scotch novel that we have read for a long while, ... a novel to be recommended."—Standard.
THE WIND IN THE ROSE BUSH. Mary E. Wilkins.
"Wonderfully artistic and enthralling tales of the supernatural."—Vanity Fair.
THE HEART'S HIGHWAY. Mary E. Wilkins.
THE ODD-JOB MAN. Oliver Onions.

"Clearly conceived and powerfully told ... they are excellent in their peculiar fashion, without a weak spot among them."—Guardian.
DANNY. Alfred Ollivant.

MOTH AND RUST. Mary Cholmondeley.
"A fine story, admirably told."—World.
THE VALLEY OF DECISION. Edith Wharton.
"A really brilliant work."—Spectator.

BERT EDWARD, THE GOLF CADDIE. By Horace Hutchinson.
"This is a really charming story, a change, how delightful it would not be easy to say, from the bitter fare on which we are too often treated."—Spectator.
THE DREAM AND THE MAN. By Mrs. Baillie Reynolds (G.M. Robins).
"A literary curio of unexpected charm."—Outlook.
