An admirable story of country-house life, full of human interest, and written in the inimitable style that has won for Mr. Norris such a multitude of readers. The characters are all real people whose doings will engage the reader’s attention until the last page is reached.
Marcus Hay.
By Stanley Portal Hyatt.
A tale of frontier life in South-East Africa. To those who would enjoy a first-class tale of adventure, written by a man who knows this part of Africa at first-hand, “Marcus Hay,” gentleman and daring explorer, can be heartily commended. The story opens quietly, but soon the reader finds that he cannot put the book down.
The Helpmate.
By May Sinclair. Author of “The Divine Fire,” etc.
A powerful story, tracing the development of character through passion and misunderstanding. The plot of the story is most engrossing. Miss Sinclair’s last book brought her wide popularity.
A Walking Gentleman.
By James Prior. Author of “Forest Folk,” “Hyssop,” etc.
The story concerns itself with the adventures of a young nobleman who on the eve of his wedding abandons his class and takes to the road. The book has a new note in it—it is fresh and altogether different from the ruck of most modern novels.
