ATHENÆUM—“Mr. Mason’s manner is alert and engaging, and his matter fresh and stirring. No one who takes up his novel is likely to lay it down unfinished.”
PUNCH—“If this my hint will increase the number of readers, they will, unless gratitude be extinct, thank me for my strong recommendation as to the excellent entertainment provided for them in The Courtship of Morrice Buckler.”
PALL MALL GAZETTE—“A right gallant romance of the seventeenth century, which is attractive from one end to the other.”
SPECTATOR—“A thrilling romance, with a most ingenious and mysterious plot. The story is excellently told.”
BLACK AND WHITE—“Admirable in every respect.”
SPEAKER—“A fine dramatic tale.”
DAILY TELEGRAPH—“Without a doubt the name of Mr. A.E. W. Mason must be added to that small but distinguished band who have given so brilliant a revival to the old-fashioned bustling romance of fair and haughty ladies, brave gallants, duels, ruffles and brocades, and all the varied and charming ingredients of those tales of bygone days which are such welcome refreshment in these prosaic times.”
