The Hon. Peter Stirling
And what people thought of him.
By Paul Leicester Ford. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
The Nation: “Floods of light on the raison d’être, origin, and methods of the dark figure that directs the destinies of our cities.... So strongly imagined and logically drawn that it satisfies the demand for the appearance of truth in art.... Telling scenes and incidents and descriptions of political organization, all of which are literal transcripts of life and fact—not dry irrelevancies thrown in by way of imparting information, but lively detail, needful for a clear understanding of Stirling’s progress from the humble chairmanship of a primary to the dictator’s throne.... In the use of dramatic possibilities, Mr. Ford is discreet and natural, and without giving Stirling a heroic pose, manages to win for him very hearty sympathy and belief. Stirling’s private and domestic story is well knit with that of his public adventures.... A very good novel.”
The Atlantic Monthly: “Commands our very sincere respect ... there is no glaring improbability about his story ... the highly dramatic crisis of the story.... The tone and manner of the book are noble.... A timely, manly, thoroughbred, and eminently suggestive book.”
The Review of Reviews: “His relations with women were of unconventional sincerity and depth.... Worth reading on several accounts.”
The Dial: “One of the strongest and most vital characters that have appeared in our fiction.... A very charming love-story. To discern the soul of good in so evil a thing as Municipal politics calls for sympathies that are not often united with a sane ethical outlook; but Peter Stirling is possessed of the one without losing his sense of the other, and it is this combination of qualities that make him so impressive and admirable a figure.... Both a readable and an ethically helpful book.”
The New York Tribune: “A portrait which is both alive and easily recognizable.”
New York Times: “Mr. Ford’s able political novel.”
The Literary World: “A fine, tender love-story.... A very unusual but, let us believe, a possible character.... Peter Stirling is a man’s hero.... Very readable and enjoyable.”
The Independent: “Full of life. The interest never flags.... It is long since we have read a better novel or one more thoroughly and naturally American.”
The Boston Advertiser: “Sure to excite attention and win popularity.”
Anthony Hope’s Romances
In Buckram Series.
18mo, with Frontispieces, 75 cents each.
The Prisoner of Zenda. 32d Edition.
“A glorious story, which cannot be too warmly recommended to all who love a tale that stirs the blood. Perhaps not the least among its many good qualities is the fact that its chivalry is of the nineteenth, not of the sixteenth, century; that it is a tale of brave men and true, and of a fair woman of to-day. The Englishman who saves the king ... is as interesting a knight as was Bayard.... The story holds the reader’s attention from first to last.”—Critic.
The Indiscretion of the Duchess. 10th Edition.
“Told with an old-time air of romance that gives the fascination of an earlier day; an air of good faith, almost of religious chivalry, gives reality to their extravagance.... Marks Mr. Hope as a wit, if he were not a romancer.”—Nation.
A Man of Mark. 9th Edition.
“More plentifully charged with humor, and the plot is every whit as original as that of Zenda ... returns to the entrancing manner of ‘The Prisoner of Zenda.’... The whole game of playing at revolution is pictured with such nearness and intimacy of view that the wildest things happen as though they were every-day occurrences.... Two triumphs of picturesque description—the overthrow and escape of the President, and the night attack on the bank. The charmingly wicked Christina is equal to anything that Mr. Hope has done, with the possible exception of the always piquant Dolly.”—Life.
The Dolly Dialogues. 9th Edition.
“Characterized by a delicious drollery; ... beneath the surface play of words lies a tragi-comedy of life.... There is infinite suggestion in every line.”—Boston Transcript.
A Change of Air. 9th Edition.
With portrait and notice of the author.
“A highly clever performance, with little touches that recall both Balzac and Meredith.... Is endowed with exceeding originality.”—New York Times.
Sport Royal. 3d Edition.
“His many admirers will be happy to find in these stories full evidence that Anthony Hope can write short stories fully as dramatic in incident as his popular novels.”—Philadelphia Call.
