THE WINNING OF BARBARA WORTH
"It is a novel with 'body,' with a large and timely idea back of it, with sound principles under it, and with a good crescendo of dramatic thrills."--Chicago Record-Herald.
"To the reader the characters will appear as real as friends they know--all of their aims, and likes, and hatreds being portrayed as true to life as snapshots caught by moving-picture cameras."--Boston Globe.
"The characters take the reader with them wherever they go, and they are characters that seem to have temporarily stepped from real life into the pages of the book."--Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph.
"The romance of the novel is told in a very charming love story which has 'Barbara Worth' for its inspiration. With her winning the author has deftly interwoven an epic of national reclamation work and present-day good business."--Richmond Times-Dispatch.
"With a vividness that assumes reality Mr. Wright shows how capital may be used to gain its end and at the same time save the community and still be 'good business'."--Omaha Bee.
"'The Calling of Dan Matthews' was a fine tale; 'The Shepherd of the Hills' was an inspiration. And now he sends us 'The Winning of Barbara Worth'--the best thing he has done so far * * * a twentieth century epic."--Cleveland Plain Dealer.
