A NYMPH OF THE WEST. By Howard Seely. 12mo. Paper, 50 cents; cloth, $1.00.
“In his ‘Nymph of the West’ Mr. Howard Seely has presented a lively and picturesque, if somewhat highly colored, study of life on the ranch and the range in western Texas, which region, as well as with the habits of its people, he appears to be unusually familiar. Cynthia Dallas, the heroine, is a fresh and original conception—a frank, high-minded girl, with enough of the innocent coquetry of her sex to make her almost irresistible.”—The Sun (New York).

“It seems to be the work of a lady who has witnessed what she chronicles. She makes her report on the actualities and illusions of New York society without a particle of sarcasm or ill-feeling.”—Journal of Commerce.
