The
Highwayman
BY
H. C. BAILEY
A tale of the days of Good Queen Anne. Across the pages flit the Queen, the great Duke of Marlborough, and, almost the last of his ill-fated race, James Stuart the Old Pretender—all these serve but for a background against which is shown as gallant a romance of villainy, misunderstanding, and high-hearted love as ever made crowns and kingdoms seem of little worth.
“The author distributes dialogue and narrative in readable proportion, he understands the effective use of detail and has an uncommon facility in description, and he writes in an easy, assured style with a dash of wit that stamps his work at once as out of the ordinary.”
