A WEST OF ENGLAND ROMANCE.
'Among most novels of the day "John Herring" is a very considerable work indeed, and both deserves and will receive proportionate attention.'—Pall Mall Gazette.
'Far, very far, above the level of ordinary novels.'—Academy.
'A powerful and interesting novel. The English is admirable; there is great freshness and vigour in the descriptions of scenery and character, and in the narrative there is abundance of invention, and many of the situations are extremely dramatic.... A book of unusual originality and power.'—Times.
