THE MAKING OF A SAINT

By the same Author

LIZA OF LAMBETH
Second Edition. Cloth, 3s. 6d.

'There has not been so powerful a story of the lowest class as "Liza of Lambeth" ... since Mr Rudyard Kipling wrote the "History of Badalia Herodsfoot." We are not sure, indeed, that this new story does not beat that one in vividness and knowledge of the class it depicts ... he has an almost extraordinary gift of directness and concentration, and his characters have an astounding amount of vitality.'—Standard.

'Those who wish to read of life as it is, without exaggeration and without modification, will have no difficulty in recognising the merits of this volume.'—Athenæum.

'He has performed his task with singular ability. No one can read his book without being convinced and saddened by its evident truth and accuracy.'—Literary World.

'The characters are depicted with great vigour, and stand out before us as lifelike as if we were actually standing in the street listening to their talk.'—Review of Reviews.

'Liza's portrait is so complete and so strong that even now her ghost refuses to be laid.'—Literature.

'Liza is a living creature from the beginning to the end.'—Queen.

Quanto e bella giovinezza,

Che si fugge tuttavia;

Chi vuol esser lieto, sia,

Di doman non c'e certezza.

Youth—how beautiful is youth!

But, alas, elusive ever!

Let him be light of heart who would be so,

For there's no surety in the morrow.
