"Well written, and the interest is sustained from the beginning to the end of the tale"--Brooklyn Eagle.
"Vividness of detail and rare descriptive power give the story life and excitement."--Boston Herald.
Denounced.
"The author of 'Denounced' is second to none in the romantic recounting of the tales of earlier days. A story of the critical times of the vagrant and ambitious Charles I, it is so replete with incident and realistic happenings that one seems translated to the very scenes and days of that troublous era in English history."--Boston Courier.
The Scourge of God.
"The story is one of the best in style, construction, information, and graphic power, that have been written in recent years."--Dial, Chicago.
In the Day of Adversity.
"Mr. Burton's creative skill is of the kind which must fascinate those who revel in the narratives of Stevenson, Rider Haggard, and Stanley Weyman. Even the author of 'A Gentleman of France' has not surpassed the writer of 'In the Day of Adversity' in the moving interest of his tale."--St. James's Gazette.
