" Until the Appletons discovered the merits of Maarten Maartens, the foremost of Dutch novelists, it is doubtful if many American readers knew that there were Dutch novelists. His ' God's Fool * and ' Toost Avelingh ' made for him an American reputa- tion. To our mind this just published work of his is his best. . . . He is a master ol epigram, an artist in description, a prophet in insight." — Boston Advertiser* " It would take several columns to give any adequate idea of the superb way in which the Dutch novelist has developed his theme and wrought out one of the most impressive stories of the period. ... It belongs to the small class of novels which one can not afford to neglect" — Sam Francisco Chronicle.
