Daily Graphic.—“A clever and entertaining novel.”
Christian World.—“The incidents connected with the four years’ rectorship of Tom Huntley are cleverly arranged and as cleverly told.… We have nothing but praise for this book, which is strongly suggestive of George Eliot’s ‘Scenes from Clerical Life.’”
His Grace’s Grace. A Powerful Novel. By the Author of “The Hypocrite,” “Miss Malevolent,” etc. Crown 8vo, cloth, 3s. 6d.
Where the Oranges Grow. A Humorous Novel. By N. A. Leyken (the Russian Mark Twain). Translated from the original by Count S. C. de Soissons. Crown 8vo, cloth, 6s.
The Tragedy of a Pedigree. An Interesting Story. By Hugo Ames. Crown 8vo, cloth, 6s.
Sketch.—“Such easy epigrammatic talk as is to be found in this book is not often met with. It is witty and delightful, and the characters seem to be drawn from life with a master-pen.”
Scotsman.—“An excellent story, well written and easily read.”
Sunday Special.—“Can be recommended as a bright, terse, epigrammatic novel of to-day. There are so few writers who are capable of constructing a neat and telling epigram that the present volume is doubly welcome.”
Vanity Fair.—“This novel is entertaining, suggestive, gently cynical and quick with promise.”
Madame.—“It is a crisp delineation of modern social life, abounding in excellent characterisation, sparkling dialogue and epigrams that are new and smart. There is scarcely a page of the book that does not contain a sentence worth reading a second time and then marking with pencil for another perusal.”
