Even ardent admirers of Opie Read in the past were hardly prepared for a work of the force and virility of “The New Mr. Howerson.” Without a doubt it is his best work. It is a book American readers cannot and will not ignore. It has qualities of climax and suspense, of vital action and forceful personalities, linked with those inimitable Read characteristics, whimsicality and humor. The book will live.
