What the Critics said:

"A work of such lofty design, written with such an unusual excellence of style, devoted so truly to the sublimer needs of men, that it must be welcomed by those who have the higher interests of the novel at heart. This form of literature is too often made to serve base ends, but here it is a vehicle for the purest emotions.... Much may be hoped from the writer of this beautiful work, deeply moving, and exquisitely sympathetic with the yearnings and sufferings of humanity."--Globe.

"The work is worth ten ordinary novels, for it takes us through the externals of worship, chivalry, and love, on that elusive quest upon which practically every human being sooner or later sets out, in the search of things-as-they-are instead of things-as-they-appear."--Daily Mail.

"In its bitterest moments, when the hero is torn with doubts and stress, there is a rich vein of humanity, dignity, and intense refinement running through it all, and the vigour and beauty of the telling remain in the memory when the triumphant ending is forgotten.--Pall Mall Gazette.

"'Pilgrimage' is a sincere, ennobling piece of work. The author's earnestness of purpose, and true literary instinct, have enabled him to perform a most difficult task with rare success."--Daily Graphic.

"A remarkable, arresting book, written in beautiful chaste English, with a strong elevating purpose."--Sheffield Telegraph.
