CHICAGO RECORD-HERALD says: "Very few novels of the day have the sterling strength, the force, and the roomy outlook of Harry Leon Wilson's 'The Spenders.' Every page of it is virile, and, what is more, it combines true insight into men with a strong humor."
CHRISTIAN HERALD says: "The character drawing throughout the book is masterly, but Peter Bines deserves a slab in the literary Hall of Fame."

The Lions of the Lord
By HARRY LEON WILSON
Author of "The Spenders." Six illustrations by Rose Cecil O'Neill, bound in dark green cloth, illustrated cover, 12mo. $1.50, postpaid.
In his romance of the old West, "The Lions of the Lord," Mr. Wilson, whose "The Spenders" is one of the successes of the present year, shows an advance in strength and grasp both in art and life. It is a thrilling tale of the Mormon settlement of Salt Lake City, with all its grotesque comedy, grim tragedy, and import to American civilization. The author's feeling for the Western scenery affords him an opportunity for many graphic pen pictures, and he is equally strong in character and in description. For the first time in a novel is the tragi-comedy of the Mormon development adequately set forth. Nothing fresher or more vital has been produced by a native novelist.
