“Incidents, after all, never make up for people; and the end of the war, which ends the book, comes as a very considerable relief. The tale is an anti-climax only because the author struggles too frantically to urge the pace and exhausts our energies prematurely.”

[*] Chamblin, Jean. Lady Bobs, her brother and I: a romance of the Azores. [†]$1.25. Putnam.
“A pleasant little romance told in letters to her friend by the girl most involved. Incidentally some graphic descriptions of the Azores and their inhabitants are introduced among the junketings of a group of American and English visitors to the islands.”—Outlook.
