WORKS BY S. R. CROCKETT.
THE STICKIT MINISTER,
AND SOME COMMON MEN.
12mo. Cloth. $1.50.
"To come across a volume like this is indeed refreshing. No wailing pessimism mars our enjoyment with its dreary disbelief in humanity; every page exhibits a robust faith in the higher possibilities of our nature, and the result is distinctly successful. . . . The author has constructed stories full of grace and charm. Those to
whom humanity in its most primitive and least complex aspect is interesting will find real pleasure in studying Mr. Crockett's strong and sympathetic presentment of Scottish peasant life."—The Speaker.
THE RAIDERS.
BEING SOME PASSAGES IN THE LIFE OF JOHN FAA,
LORD AND EARL OF LITTLE EGYPT.
12mo. Cloth. $1.50.
"... The things that befell us in those strange years when the hill outlaws collogued with the wild freetraders of the Holland traffic, and fell upon us to the destruction of the life of man, the carrying away of much bestial, besides the putting of many of His Majesty's lieges in fear. . . ."—The Foreword.
MAD SIR UCHTRED OF THE HILLS.
16mo. Buckram. $1.25.
"Mr. Crockett is surely the poet-laureate of Galloway. The scene of his latest tale ('Mad Sir Uchtred') is laid among the hills with which we became familiar in 'The Raiders.' The Lady of Garthland makes a gracious and pathetic figure, and the wild and terrible Uchtred, the wrong done him, the vengeance which he did not take, all these things are narrated in a style of exquisite clearness and beauty. Mr. Crockett need not fear comparison with any of the young Scotsmen who are giving to English literature, just now, so much that is fresh, and wholesome, and powerful."—Boston Courier.
