OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
“A novel of stirring adventure, but also one with a purpose.”—Morning Post.
“In this novel Lady Florence Dixie inculcates her well-known theories about the education and position of women. The way is paved for various thrilling adventures.”—Times.
“Lady Florence Dixie has the courage of her opinions; she writes freely and frankly, with a natural grace of manner that makes her works interesting and readable, and she has the art of writing a good story while enforcing her theories. There is plenty of excitement, adventure, and interest in the story; and, apart from its too startling title, Lady Florence Dixie’s novel will commend itself to the reading public.”—Life.
“Carries us through at breathless speed.”—Truth.
“That Lady Florence Dixie can write well is shown not only by her natural sketch Mæva, but by the character of Lady Ettrick, and her charming sketches at the opening of the youthful lovers Rory and Lorna, who certainly do not bend to the customs of conventional society. Whatever else be said for or against the novel, it is indubitably exciting.”—Academy.
“Lady Florence is a vivacious writer; many of her social sketches are very happy, and among her faults she certainly does not number that of dulness.”—Literary World.
