"There are really three stories in 'The Long Gallery,' of which each maintain its separate interest while coherently connected with the other two. If Griselda proves the most captivating, she scores a distinct victory over her rivals for favor, for they in widely differing fashion are worthy of her steel.... Griselda fought a good fight and the manner of it is worth the reading."—Boston Transcript.

"Both girls have been educated by good teachers who have so trained their minds and hearts that they are able to break the meshes entangling them, and to save their souls alive.... 'The Long Gallery' is equally remarkable in its English and in its personages."—The Living Age.
