BY S. R. CROCKETT.
Uniform edition. Each, 12mo, cloth, $1.50.
THE STANDARD BEARER. An Historical Romance.
"Mr. Crockett's book is distinctly one of the books of the year.' Five months of 1898 have passed without bringing to the reviewers' desk anything to be compared with it in beauty of description, convincing characterization, absorbing plot and humorous appeal. The freshness and sweet sincerity of the tale are most invigorating, and that the book will be very much read there is no possible doubt."—Boston Budget.
"The book will move to tears, provoke to laughter, stir the blood, and evoke heroisms of history, making the reading of it a delight and the memory of it a stimulus and a joy."—New York Evangelist.
LADS' LOVE. Illustrated.
"It seems to us that there is in this latest product much of the realism of personal experience. However modified and disguised, it is hardly possible to think that the writer's personality does not present itself in Saunders McQuhirr. . . . Rarely has the author drawn more truly from life than in the cases of hance and 'the Hempie'; never more typical Scotsman of the humble sort than the farmer Peter Chrystie."—London Athenæum.
CLEG KELLY, ARAB OF THE CITY. His Progress and Adventures. Illustrated.
"A masterpiece which Mark Twain himself has never rivaled. . . . If there ever was an ideal character in fiction it is this heroic ragamuffin."—London Daily Chronicle.
"In no one of his books dues Mr. Crockett give us a brighter or more graphic picture of contemporary Scotch life than in 'Cleg Kelly.' . . . It is one of the great books."—Boston Daily Advertiser.
BOG-MYRTLE AND PEAT. Third edition.
"Here are idyls, epics, dramas of human life, written in words that thrill and burn. . . . Each is a poem that has an immortal flavor. They are fragments of the author's early dreams, too bright, too gorgeous, too full of the blood of rubies and the life of diamonds to be caught and held palpitating in expression's grasp."—Boston Courier.
"Hardly a sketch among them all that will not afford pleasure to the reader for its genial humor, artistic local coloring, and admirable portrayal of character."—Boston Home Journal.
THE LILAC SUNBONNET. Eighth edition.
"A love story, pure and simple, one of the old fashioned, wholesome, sunshiny kind, with a pure minded, sound-hearted hero, and a heroine who is merely a good and beautiful wormn; and if any other love story hall so sweet has been written this year it has escaped our notice."—New York Times.
"The general conception of the story, the motive of which is the growth of love between the young chief and heroine, is delineated with a sweetness and a freshness, a naturalness and a certainty, which places 'The Lilac Sunbonnet' among the best stories of the time."—New York Mail and Express.
D. APPLETON AND COMPANY, NEW YORK.
