THE THIRD VIOLET
By STEPHEN CRANE
In One Volume, price 6s.
The Athenæum.—'We have never come across a book that brought certain sections of American society so perfectly before the reader as does The Third Violet, which introduces us to a farming family, to the boarders at a summer hotel, and to the young artists of New York. The picture is an extremely pleasant one, and its truth appeals to the English reader, so that the effect of the book is to draw him nearer to his American cousins. The Third Violet incidentally contains the best dog we have come across in modern fiction. Mr. Crane's dialogue is excellent, and it is dialogue of a type for which neither The Red Badge of Courage nor his later books had prepared us.'
AFRICAN NIGHTS' ENTERNAINMENT
By A. J. DAWSON
In One Volume, price 6s.
The Pall Mall Gazette.—'His stories have the special attraction of stories of a country by a man who has knowledge of it and is under its fascination ; and are good stories into the bargain. He has a pretty humour, and the gift of telling a story well, and special knowledge to work upon ; the result is an entertaining book.'
The Scotsman.—'The stories are all invented and written with that glow of imagination which seems to come of Eastern sunshine. . . . They are besides novel and readable in no ordinary degree, and they make a book which will not fail to interest every one who takes it up.'
THE STORY OF RONALD KESTREL
By A. J. DAWSON
In One Volume, price 6s.
The Athenæum.—'The sketches of life and scenery in Morocco and in New South Wales are attractive, the literary composition keeps a good level throughout. Mr. Dawson is a writer of ability who has seen men and things, and should go far.'
The Daily Telegraph.—'Mr. Dawson's mise-en-scene is always one of the main features in his work. In the present story it is very varied, beginning the life-history of the hero in Morocco, meeting him again in Australia, and finally transporting him to the London of Bloomsbury. In Morocco and in Australia we are conscious of the heat-laden, distinctive atmosphere in the one case Oriental and mystic, in the other vast, burning and prophetic.'
