The Old Knowledge
By
Stephen Gwynn
WESTMINSTER GAZETTE.—“It is long since it has been our good fortune to meet with a novel so fresh, breezy, and altogether charming.”
SUNDAY SUN.—“A good book, very far above the customary novel of the day in all important matters. It has charm of manner, a delicate and indefinable melancholy—the inalienable melancholy of the Irish—and also a very welcome touch of Irish humour.... It introduces us to several very charming people.”
DAILY EXPRESS.—“A very pretty story, wholesome and refreshing, with the sweet air of Donegal.... The humour, the prettiness, and the trouble of the story are all perfect in their lightness and harmony. Mr. Gwynn is among the most graceful and pleasant of Irish writers.”
THE SPECTATOR.—“It is admirably written: it has an interesting theme, and its development in plot and characterisation ... is in faithful correspondence with the facts of life. In a word, the book is both charming and convincing.”
