THE SHUTTLE, By Frances Hodgson Burnett
With inlay cover in colors by Clarence F. Underwood.
This great international romance relates the story of an American girl who, in rescuing her sister from the ruins of her marriage to an Englishman of title, displays splendid qualities of courage, tact and restraint. As a study of American womanhood of modern times, the character of Bettina Vanderpoel stands alone in literature. As a love story, the account of her experience is magnificent. The masterly handling, the glowing style of the book, give it a literary rank to which very few modern novels have attained.
THE MAKING OF A MARCHIONESS, By Frances Hodgson Burnett
Illustrated with half tone engravings by Charles D. Williams. With initial letters, tail-pieces, decorative borders. Beautifully printed, and daintily bound, and boxed.
A delightful novel in the author's most charming vein. The scene is laid in an English country house, where an amiable English nobleman is the centre of matrimonial interest on the part of both the English and Americans present.
Graceful, sprightly, almost delicious in its dialogue and action. It is a book about which one is tempted to write ecstatically.
