DAILY CHRONICLE.—"All three are admirably written in that easy, simple narrative style to which the author had so thoroughly accustomed us. It will be for many of Mrs. Oliphant's friends a wholly unexpected pleasure to have a new volume of fiction with her name on the title-page."
PALL MALL GAZETTE.—"They are models of what such stories should be."
SHEFFIELD DAILY TELEGRAPH.—"Excellent examples of Mrs. Oliphant's work."
SCOTSMAN.—"All three stories have a fine literary flavour and an artistic finish, and within their limited scope present some subtle analyses of character."
NORTHERN WHIG.—"Anything from the pen of the late Mrs. Oliphant will always be welcome to a large number of readers, who will therefore note with pleasant interest the publication by Messrs. Macmillan of a neat volume containing three tales, 'That Little Cutty,' 'Dr. Barrère,' and 'Isabel Dysart.' Of the three, although all are most readable, the most skilfully constructed is the second named, the plot and climax of which are decidedly dramatic. The last story deals with the still unforgotten period of the horrible Burke and Hare revelations in Edinburgh."
