"We do not apologise for telling the story of this little book, 'The Bond of Blood,' and giving long extracts from it. It is worth reading even when one knows all that is coming; for it is excellently told, with concentrated force, great simplicity, and a very remarkable attention to illustrative detail."—Spectator.

"A cheap and excellent series."—St. James's Budget.

"Well bound, well printed, and exceptionally low in price."—Glasgow Herald.
