In this “plantation romance” Mr. Eggleston has resumed the manner and method that made his “Dorothy South” one of the most famous books of its time.
There are three tender love stories embodied in it, and two unusually interesting heroines, utterly unlike each other, but each possessed of a peculiar fascination which wins and holds the reader’s sympathy. A pleasing vein of gentle humor runs through the work, but the “sum of it all” is an intensely sympathetic love story.
HEARTS AND THE CROSS, By Harold Morton Cramer
With illustrations by Harold Matthews Brett.
The hero is an unconventional preacher who follows the line of the Man of Galilee, associating with the lowly, and working for them in the ways that may best serve them. He is not recognized at his real value except by the one woman who saw clearly. Their love story is one of the refreshing things in recent fiction.
