10th Impression of the Sequel to
"The Prisoner of Zenda"
HOPE'S RUPERT OF HENTZAU
From the memoirs of Fritz von Tarlenheim. With eight full-page illustrations by Charles Dana Gibson, 12mo, $1.50.
A. Dithmar in New York Times' Saturday Review: "Delightfully stirring and irresponsible, ... a sequel ... for a wonder as vigorous and powerful as its original.... It seems to bring romance to life again."
Life: "A sequel to 'Zenda' which does not let down one bit the high standard of chivalrous love which was the charm of that romance.... Mr. Hope's heroes are never dull.... These 'Zenda' stories have added a distinctly modern value to what men and women mean by the 'sense of honor.'... The closing chapters are simply written, elevated in sentiment, and an ideal solution of the fate of Flavia and Rudolf."
Geo. W. Smalloy in New York Herald: "A story which lays a spell upon you. The animation is unceasing, and so, therefore, is the interest.... Mr. Hope has not lost his old deftness in dialogue.... The scene between the two men [Sapt and James] after the murder ... is a masterpiece."
New York Tribune: "Everything moves swiftly and naturally to the climax, upon which, we may add, Mr. Hope has wreaked himself with a tact that is perhaps the best thing in the book.... It is absorbing, and especially is it an excellent sequel, which is more than can be said of most books of its kind."
Springfield Republican: "It is a question whether it does not rival 'The Prisoner of Zenda' itself in excellence.... It strikes a stronger and deeper note."
Brooklyn Eagle: "Has the ring of genuine humanity and true romance."
