F. MARION CRAWFORD'S
Stradella
Illustrated, cloth, 12mo, $1.50,"Schools of fiction have come and gone, but Mr. Crawford has always remained in favor. There are two reasons for his continued popularity; he always had a story to tell and he knew how to tell it. He was a born story teller, and what is more rare, a trained one."—The Independent.
The White Sister
Illustrated cloth, 12mo, $1.50"Mr. Crawford tells his love story with plenty of that dramatic instinct which was ever one of his best gifts. We are, as always, absorbed and amused."—New York Tribune.
"Good stirring romance, simple and poignant."—Chicago Record Herald.
"His people are always vividly real, invariably individual."—Boston Transcript.
ROBERT HERRICK'S
Together
Cloth, 12mo, $1.50"An able book, remarkably so, and one which should find a place in the library of any woman who is not a fool."—Editorial in the New York American.
A Life for a Life
Cloth, 12mo, $1.50Mr. W. D. Howells says in the North American Review: "What I should finally say of his work is that it is more broadly based than that of any other American novelist of his generation.... Mr. Herrick's fiction is a force for the higher civilization, which to be widely felt, needs only to be widely known."
JAMES LANE ALLEN'S
The Bride of the Mistletoe
Cloth, 12mo, $1.25"He has achieved a work of art more complete in expression than anything that has yet come from him. It is like a cry of the soul, so intense one scarcely realizes whether it is put into words or not."—Bookman.
WINSTON CHURCHILL'S
Mr. Crewe's Career
Illustrated, cloth, 12mo, $1.50"Mr. Churchill rises to a level he has never known before and gives us one of the best stories of American life ever written; ... it is written out of a sympathy that goes deep.... We go on to the end with growing appreciation.... It is good to have such a book."—New York Tribune.
"American realism, American romance, and American doctrine, all overtraced by the kindliest, most appealing American humor."—New York World.
ELLEN GLASGOW'S
The Romance of a Plain Man
Cloth, 12mo, $1.50"To any one who has a genuine interest in American literature there is no pleasanter thing than to see the work of some good American writer strengthening and deepening year by year as has the work of Miss Ellen Glasgow. From the first she has had the power to tell a strong story, full of human interest, but as the years have passed and her work has continued it has shown an increasing mellowness and sympathy. This is particularly evident in 'The Romance of a Plain Man.'"—Chicago Daily Tribune.
