Church Gazette.—“We can heartily recommend ‘The Lady of Criswold.’ One likes to meet now and again a book which forsakes the eternal sex question, or the hair-splitting discussion of ethical or psychological problems, and treats us to simpler and more satisfying fare. . . . There are several good hours’ reading in the book, and plenty of excitement of the dramatic order. Another good point is that it is healthy in tone.”
The Gates of Temptation. A Natural Novel by Mrs Albert S. Bradshaw, Author of “False Gods,” “Wife or Slave,” etc. Crown 8vo, cloth, 2s. 6d.
Weekly Dispatch.—“This is a story full of power and pathos, the strong dramatic interest of which is sustained from the opening chapter to the close.”
Midland Mail.—“The characters are vividly drawn. There are many pleasant and painful incidents in the book, which is interesting from beginning to end.”
London Morning.—“Mrs Albert Bradshaw has done such uniformly good work that we have grown to expect much from her. Her latest book is one which will enhance her reputation, and equally please new and old readers of her novels. It is called ‘The Gates of Temptation,’ and professes to be a natural novel. The story told is one of deep interest. There is no veneer in its presentation, no artificiality about it.”
Aberdeen Free Press.—“Mrs Bradshaw has written several good novels, and the outstanding feature of all of them has been her skilful development of plot, and her tasteful, pleasing style. In connection with the present story we are able to amply reiterate those praises. The plot again is well developed and logically carried out, while the language used by the authoress is always happy and well chosen, and never commonplace. . . . The story is a very powerful one indeed, and may be highly commended as a piece of painstaking fiction of the very highest kind.”
The Resurrection of His Grace. Being the very candid Confessions of the Honourable Bertie Beauclerc. A Sporting Novel. By Campbell Rae-Brown, Author of “Richard Barlow,” “Kissing Cup’s Race,” etc. Second Impression. Crown 8vo, cloth, 2s. 6d.
Gentlewoman.—“Fantastic and impossible, but at the same time amusing. . . . The whole story is strongly dramatic.”
Saturday Review.—“A grotesquely improbable story, but readers of sporting novels will find much amusement in it.”
Scotsman.—“The book is lightly and briskly written throughout. Its pleasant cynicism is always entertaining.”
