TRUTH.—‘A fascinating story.... Peter reminds me of Tom Tulliver in “The Mill on the Floss.”’

THE MARRIAGE OF WILLIAM ASHE. By Mrs. Humphry Ward. With Illustrations by Albert Sterner. Second Impression. Crown 8vo. 6s.

GUARDIAN.—‘In her creation of Lady Kitty, Mrs. Ward has achieved a triumph.... In her grasp and portraiture of these two sides of the human character, the nature as it appears to man and as it appears to God, Mrs. Ward has succeeded absolutely, and we believe that her latest novel will be reckoned as the best that she has produced.
