FLORIDA; OR, THE IRON WILL.
The first announcement of this work said:—“It is one of the most powerful and beautiful romances yet penned by Mrs. Denison. The action and characters are all in the life of to-day—living and moving in our midst, and acting out the drama of life as it is, in certain social circles of our cities.”
RUTH MARGERIE;
Or, the Revolt of 1689. The author here introduces the reader to one of the most exciting episodes in the history of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The successful revolt of the people against the tyranny of Sir Edmund Andros is seized upon to weave around it a romance of peculiar interest, placing before us incidents and characters that excite much of the intense feeling created by Hawthorne’s romance of “The Scarlet Letter.”
TIM BUMBLE’S CHARGE;
Or, the One Great Sorrow. Another story of to-day—a tale of New England and New York city life, full of spirit of country and city, in which a woman’s joys and sorrows float like a beacon to command our attention. It is a novel possessed of all the author’s best characteristics.
THE MAD HUNTER;
Or, the Downfall of the Le-Forests. Mrs. Denison here gives us a picture of blended light and shade. The number of dramatis personæ and the rapid succession of peculiar events combine to produce a very novel novel. Those who admire novelty of drama and circumstances will consider this one of the author’s best stories.
