THE CHANNINGS.
“‘The Channings’ will probably be read over and over again, and it can never be read too often.”—The Athenæum.
MRS. HALLIBURTON’S TROUBLES.
“The boldness, originality, and social scrutiny displayed in this work remind the reader of Adam Bede. It would be difficult to place beside the death of Edgar Halliburton anything in fiction comparable with its profound pathos and simplicity. It is long since the novel-reading world has had reason so thoroughly to congratulate itself upon the appearance of a new work as in the instance of ‘Mrs. Halliburton’s Troubles.’ It is a fine work; a great and artistic picture.”—The Morning Post.
THE SHADOW OF ASHLYDYAT.
“‘The Shadow of Ashlydyat’ is very clever, and keeps up the constant interest of the reader. It has a slight supernatural tinge, which gives the romantic touch to the story which Sir Walter Scott so often used with even greater effect; but it is not explained away at the end, as Sir Walter Scott’s supernatural touches generally, and inartistically, were.”—The Spectator.
LADY ADELAIDE.
“One of Mrs. Henry Wood’s best novels.”—The Star.
“Mme. Henry Wood est fort célèbre en Angleterre, et ses romans—très moraux et très bien écrits—sont dans toutes les mains et revivent dans toutes les mémoires. Le serment de lady Adelaïde donneront à nos lecteurs une idée très suffisante du talent si élevé de mistress Henry Wood.”—Instruction Publique.
