A romantic story of Moorish life in the Rift Country and in Tangier by Mr. A. J. Dawson, whose last novel, God's Foundling, was well received in the beginning of the year, and whose West African and Australian Bush stories will be familiar to most readers of fiction. Bismillah is the title chosen for Mr. Dawson's new book, which may be regarded as the outcome of his somewhat adventurous experiences in Morocco last year.
ACADEMY.—"Romantic and dramatic, and full of colour."
GUARDIAN.—"Decidedly clever and original.... Its excellent local colouring, and its story, as a whole interesting and often dramatic, make it a book more worth reading and enjoyable than is at all common."
SPEAKER.—"A stirring tale of love and adventure.... There is enough of exciting incident, of fighting, intrigue, and love-making in Bismillah to satisfy the most exacting reader."
MANCHESTER GUARDIAN.—"An interesting and pleasing tale."
SCOTSMAN.—"Mr. Dawson sustains the interest of his readers to the end. The characters are well defined, the situations are frequently dramatic, the descriptive passages are clear and animated, and a rich vein of genuine human nature runs through the narrative."
DUNDEE ADVERTISER.—"Mr. Dawson has caught the spirit of the country, and his romance has the Moorish glamour about it delicious as a memory of Tangiers in sunset."
