“A very attractive and enthralling tale. It is one of the most brilliant achievements of Mr. Percy Fitzgerald’s pen. The character of the Doctor is a masterpiece, and his two daughters are as charming and delightful heroines as novel reader could desire.”—Sun.
“A fresh, natural, and humorous story, excellently put together, and growing in interest to the very end.”—Echo.
MY LITTLE LADY. 3 vols.
“There is a great deal of fascination about this book. The author writes in a clear, unaffected style. She has a decided gift for depicting character; while the descriptions of scenery scattered up and down the book convey a distinct pictorial impression to the reader. The scenes in Florence are singularly rich in local colouring and picturesque details. All this part of the narrative is very interestingly told. It reads like the experiences of an actual life.”—Times.
“This book is full of life and colour. The scenes in which the incidents are laid pourtray the experiences of a mind well stored to begin with, and quick to receive impressions of grace and beauty. Finally, there is not a line in it that might not be read aloud in the family circle.”—Pall Mall Gazette.
“This story presents a number of vivid and very charming pictures. Indeed, the whole book is charming. It is interesting in both character and story, and thoroughly good of its kind.”—Saturday Review.
“A book which can be read with genuine pleasure. The aim of the story is high and its moral excellent, and the ‘Little Lady’ is thoroughly worthy of her name.”—Athenæum.
“One of the most remarkable and most interesting tales which has been for some time submitted to the public.”—Morning Post.
SIR HARRY HOTSPUR. By Anthony Trollope, author of “Framley Parsonage,” &c. 1 vol. 10s. 6d.
“In this novel we are glad to recognise a return to what we must call Mr. Trollope’s old form. The characters are drawn with vigour and boldness, and the book may do good to many readers of both sexes.”—Times.
