"The book is a bit of the living America of to-day, a true picture of one of its most significant phases ... living, throbbing with reality."—New York Evening Mail.
"Novels of its style and quality are few and far between ... he tells a story that is worth the telling ... it is a study of life as he sees it, and as thousands of his readers try to avoid seeing it."—Boston Transcript.
The Queen's Quair, or The Six Years' Tragedy
By MAURICE HEWLETT
Author of "Richard Yea-and-Nay," "The Forest Lovers," etc., etc.
| Cloth | 12mo | $1.50 |
"Mr. Hewlett has produced in this book an enthralling work. It is at once a chronicle of certain momentous years in the life of his famous heroine and a searching study of her character.... 'The Queen's Quair' is profoundly absorbing, and no one among the novelists of to-day save Mr. Hewlett could have written it. No one else could have sustained such a long narrative on so high a level with such consummate art."—New York Tribune.
"No piece of historical fiction has so adequately described the career of the unfortunate and misguided Queen of Scotland, and no other writer has approached Mr. Hewlett in dramatic power and literary skill. He uses words that express his meaning precisely.... His conciseness of forcible expression is indeed admirable. The story, too, is full of action and commands undivided attention. Mary's portrait leaves a lasting impression."—Boston Budget.
