THE STRANGE ADVENTURES OF A PHAETON. Seventh and Cheaper Edition. Crown 8vo. 6s. Also, Illustrated by S. E. Waller, 8vo. cloth gilt. 10s. 6d.
"The book is a really charming description of a thousand English landscapes and of the emergencies and the fun and the delight of a picnic journey through them by a party determined to enjoy themselves, and as well matched as the pair of horses which drew the phaeton they sat in. The real charm and purpose of the book is its open-air life among hills and dales."—Times. "The great charm of Mr. Black's book is that there is nothing hackneyed about it, nothing overdrawn,—all is bright and lifelike."—Morning Post.
A PRINCESS OF THULE. Three vols. Sixth and cheaper Edition. Crown 8vo. 6s.
The Saturday Review says:—"A novel which is both romantic and natural, which has much feeling, without any touch of mawkishness, which goes deep into character without any suggestion of painful analysis—this is a rare gem to find amongst the débris of current literature, and this, or nearly this, Mr. Black has given us in the 'Princess of Thule.'" "It has, for one thing, the great charm of novelty.... There is a picturesqueness in all that Mr. Black writes, but scarcely even in the 'Adventures of a Phaeton' are there the freshness and sweetness and perfect sense of natural beauty we find in this last book."—Pall Mall Gazette. "A beautiful and nearly perfect story."—Spectator.
