* * * They are, all three, quiet, unpretentious, gracefully told stories that almost all classes of readers will enjoy.

TOWN TOPICS.
There is a charm in Walter Phelps Dodge’s “Three Greek Tales” wholly in keeping with the classic scenery in which they are laid and the classical associations it suggests. Of those fair isles, dear alike to the artist and the littérateur, story and picture each take on qualities borrowed from its rival, and these tales of modern Greek life are enjoyable largely for their picturesque setting.
NEW YORK TELEGRAM.
* * * A young author could hardly have a more auspicious introduction to the public than this small volume gives. If there is no realism or pretence to analysis of character, there is something far better and rarer, in these days of over-stuffed and over-seasoned “roast and boiled”—there are characters that stand out and that live and breathe by reason of a few fine outlines of suggestiveness.
NEW YORK WORLD.
* * * Love stories, all of them, well told in the main.
