The Elixir, and Other Tales. Translated by Mrs. EDWARD H. BELL. With Portrait of the Author. 1 volume.

"Dr. Ebers's romances founded on ancient history are hardly equaled by any other living author.... He makes the men and women and the scenes move before the reader with living reality."--_Boston Home Journal._

"Georg Ebers writes stories of ancient times with the conscientiousness of a true investigator. His tales are so carefully told that large portions of them might be clipped or quoted by editors of guide-books and authors of histories intended to be popular."--_New York Herald._


D. APPLETON & CO.'S PUBLICATIONS.

_SLEEPING FIRES._ By GEORGE GISSING, author of "In the Year of Jubilee," "Eve's Ransom," etc. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
http://archive.org/details/sleepingfires00gissgoog

In this striking story the author has treated an original motive with rare self-command and skill. His book is most interesting as a story, and remarkable as a literary performance.

_STONEPASTURES._ By ELEANOR STUART. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.
http://archive.org/details/stonepastures01chilgoog

"This is a strong bit of good literary workmanship.... The book has the value of being a real sketch of our own mining regions, and of showing how, even in the apparently dull round of work, there is still material for a good bit of literature."--_Philadelphia Ledger._

_COURTSHIP BY COMMAND._ By M. M. BLAKE. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.

"A bright, moving study of an unusually interesting period in the life of Napoleon, ... deliciously told; the characters are clearly, strongly, and very delicately modeled, and the touches of color most artistically done. 'Courtship by Command' is the most satisfactory Napoleon _bonne-bouche_ we have had."--_New York Commercial Advertiser._

_THE WATTER'S MOU'._ By BRAM STOKER. 16mo. Cloth, 75 cents.

"Here is a tale to stir the most sluggish nature.... It is like standing on the deck of a wave-tossed ship; you feel the soul of the storm go into your blood."--_N. Y. Home Journal._

"The characters are strongly drawn, the descriptions are intensely dramatic, and the situations are portrayed with rare vividness of language. It is a thrilling story, told with great power."--_Boston Advertiser._

_A STREET IN SUBURBIA._ By EDWIN PUGH. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.

"Simplicity of style, strength, and delicacy of character study will mark this book as one of the most significant of the year."--_New York Press._

"Thoroughly entertaining, and more--it shows traces of a creative genius something akin to Dickens."--_Boston Traveller._

"In many respects the best of all the books of lighter literature brought out this season."--_Providence News._

"Highly pleasing and gracefully recorded reminiscences of early suburban life and youthful experience told in a congenial spirit and in very charming prose."--_Boston Courier._

_MAJESTY._ A Novel. By LOUIS COUPERUS. Translated by A. TEIXEIRA DE MATTOS and ERNEST DOWSON. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/33779

"There have been many workers among novelists in the field of royal portraiture, but it may be safely stated that few of those who have essayed this dubious path have achieved more striking results than M. Couperus. 'Majesty' is an extraordinarily vivid romance of autocratic imperialism."--_London Academy._

"No novelist whom we can call to mind has ever given the world such a masterpiece of royal portraiture as Louis Couperus's striking romance entitled 'Majesty.'"--_Philadelphia Record._

"There is not an uninteresting page in the book, and it ought to be read by all who desire to keep in line with the best that is published in modern fiction."--_Buffalo Commercial._

_THE NEW MOON._ By C. E. RAIMOND, author of "George Mandeville's Husband," etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.

"A delicate pathos makes itself felt as the narrative progresses, whose cadences fall on the spirit's consciousness with a sweet and soothing influence not to be measured in words."--_Boston Courier._

"One of the most impressive of recent works of fiction, both for its matter and especially for its presentation."--_Milwaukee Journal._

"An intensely interesting story. A curious interweaving of old superstitions which govern a nervous woman's selfish life, and the brisk, modern ways of a wholesome English girl."--_Philadelphia Ledger._

_THE WISH._ A Novel. By HERMANN SUDERMANN. With a Biographical Introduction by ELIZABETH LEE. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/33886

"Contains some superb specimens of original thought."--_New York World._

"The style is direct and incisive, and holds the unflagging attention of the reader."--_Boston Journal._

"A powerful story, very simple, very direct."--_Chicago Evening Post._


GILBERT PARKER'S BEST BOOKS.

_THE TRAIL OF THE SWORD._ A Novel. 12mo. Paper, 50 cents; cloth, $1.00.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6210

"Mr. Parker here adds to a reputation already wide, and anew demonstrates his power of pictorial portrayal and of strong dramatic situation and climax."--_Philadelphia Bulletin._

"The tale holds the reader's interest from first to last, for it is full of fire and spirit, abounding in incident, and marked by good character drawing."--_Pittsburg Times._

_THE TRESPASSER._ 12mo. Paper, 50 cents; cloth, $1.00.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6222

"Interest, pith, force, and charm--Mr. Parker's new story possesses all these qualities.... Almost bare of synthetical decoration, his paragraphs are stirring because they are real. We read at times--as we have read the great masters of romance--breathlessly."--_The Critic._

"Gilbert Parker writes a strong novel, but thus far this is his masterpiece.... It is one of the great novels of the year."--_Boston Advertiser._

_THE TRANSLATION OF A SAVAGE_. 16mo. Flexible cloth, 75 cents.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6214

"A book which no one will be satisfied to put down until the end has been matter of certainty and assurance."--_The Nation._

"A story of remarkable interest, originality, and ingenuity of construction."--_Boston Home Journal._

"The perusal of this romance will repay those who care for new and original types of character, and who are susceptible to the fascination of a fresh and vigorous style."--_London Daily News._


BY S. R. CROCKETT.

_CLEG KELLY, ARAB OF THE CITY. His Progress and Adventures._ Uniform with "The Lilac Sunbonnet" and "Bog-Myrtle and Peat." Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
http://archive.org/details/clegkellyarabci01crocgoog

It is safe to predict for the quaint and delightful figure of Cleg Kelly a notable in the literature of the day. Mr. Crockett's signal success in his new field will enlarge the wide circle of his admirers. The lights and shadows of curious phases of Edinburgh life, and of Scotch farm and railroad life, are pictured with an intimate sympathy, richness of humor, and truthful pathos which make this new novel a genuine addition to literature. It seems safe to say that at least two characters--Cleg and Muckle Alick--are likely to lead Mr. Crockett's heroes in popular favor. The illustrations of this fascinating novel have been the result of most faithful and sympathetic study.

_BOG-MYRTLE AND PEAT._ Third edition. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/13667

"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._

"One dips into the book anywhere and reads on and on, fascinated by the writer's charm of manner."--_Minneapolis Tribune._

_THE LILAC SUNBONNET._ Sixth edition. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/4918

"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 woman; and if any other love story half 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._

"In its own line this little love story can hardly be excelled. It is a pastoral, an idyl--the story of love and courtship and marriage of a fine young man and a lovely girl--no more. But it is told in so thoroughly delightful a manner, with such playful humor, such delicate fancy, such true and sympathetic feeling, that nothing more could be desired."--_Boston Traveller._

_THE ONE WHO LOOKED ON._ By F. F. MONTRÉSOR, author of "Into the Highways and Hedges." 16mo. Cloth, special binding, $1.25.
http://archive.org/details/onewholookedon00montgoog

"The story runs on as smoothly as a brook through lowlands; it excites your interest at the beginning and keeps it to the end."--_New York Herald._

"An exquisite story.... No person sensitive to the influence of what makes for the true, the lovely, and the strong in human friendship and the real in life's work can read this book without being benefited by it."--_Buffalo Commercial._

"The book has universal interest and very unusual merit.... Aside from its subtle poetic charm, the book is a noble example of the power of keen observation."--_Boston Herald._

_CORRUPTION_. By PERCY WHITE, author of "Mr. Bailey-Martin," etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.25.

"There is intrigue enough in it for those who love a story of the ordinary kind, and the political part is perhaps more attractive in its sparkle and variety of incident than the real thing itself."--_London Daily News._

"A drama of biting intensity, a tragedy of inflexible purpose and relentless result."--_Pall Mall Gazette._

_A HARD WOMAN._ A Story in Scenes. By VIOLET HUNT. 12mo. Cloth, $1.25.
http://archive.org/details/ahardwomanastor00huntgoog

"An extremely clever work. Miss Hunt probably writes dialogue better than any of our young novelists.... Not only are her conversations wonderfully vivacious and sustained, but she contrives to assign to each of her characters a distinct mode of speech, so that the reader easily identifies them, and can follow the conversations without the slightest difficulty."--_London Athenæum._

"One of the best writers of dialogue of our immediate day. The conversations in this book will enhance her already secure reputation."--_London Daily Chronicle._

"A creation that does Miss Hunt infinite credit, and places her in the front rank of the younger novelists.... Brilliantly drawn, quivering with life, adroit, quiet-witted, unfalteringly insolent, and withal strangely magnetic."--_London Standard._

_AN IMAGINATIVE MAN._ By ROBERT S. HICHENS, author of "The Green Carnation." 12mo. Cloth, $1.25.
http://archive.org/details/animaginativema00goog

"One of the brightest books of the year."--_Boston Budget._

"Altogether delightful, fascinating, unusual."--_Cleveland Amusement Gazette._

"A study in character.... Just as entertaining as though it were the conventional story of love and marriage. The clever hand of the author of 'The Green Carnation' is easily detected in the caustic wit and pointed epigram."--_Jeannette L. Gilder, in the New York World._

Mr. F. MARION CRAWFORD'S NOVELS

THE SARACINESCA SERIES

=Saracinesca=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/13757

"The work has two distinct merits, either of which would serve to make it great,--that of telling a perfect story in a perfect way, and of giving a graphic picture of Roman society in the last days of the Pope's temporal power.... The story is exquisitely told."--_Boston Traveler._

=Sant' Ilario.= A Sequel to "Saracinesca"
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5227

"A singularly powerful and beautiful story.... It fulfils every requirement of artistic fiction. It brings out what is most impressive in human action, without owing any of its effectiveness to sensationalism or artifice. It is natural, fluent in evolution, accordant with experience, graphic in description, penetrating in analysis, and absorbing in interest."--_New York Tribune._

=Don Orsino.= A Sequel to "Sant' Ilario"
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/13218

"Perhaps the cleverest novel of the year.... There is not a dull paragraph in the book, and the reader may be assured that once begun, the story of _Don Orsino_ will fascinate him until its close."--_The Critic._

=Taquisara=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/11050

"To Mr. Crawford's Roman novels belongs the supreme quality of uniting subtly drawn characters to a plot of uncommon interest."--_Chicago Tribune._

=Corleone=
http://archive.org/details/corleoneatalesi01crawgoog

"Mr. Crawford is the novelist born ... a natural story-teller, with wit, imagination, and insight added to a varied and profound knowledge of social life."--_The Inter-Ocean_, Chicago.

=Casa Braccio.=
http://archive.org/details/casbraccio00crawrich

_In two volumes, $2.00._ Illustrated by A. Castaigne Like _Taquisara_ and _Corleone_, it is closely related in plot to the fortunes of the Saracinesca family.

"Mr. Crawford's books have life, pathos, and insight; he tells a dramatic story with many exquisite touches."--_New York Sun._




Mr. F. MARION CRAWFORD'S NOVELS

NOVELS OF ROMAN SOCIAL LIFE

=A Roman Singer=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/12346

"One of the earliest and best works of this famous novelist.... None but a genuine artist could have made so true a picture of human life, crossed by human passions and interwoven with human weakness. It is a perfect specimen of literary art."--_The Newark Advertiser._

=Marzio's Crucifix=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/16720

"We have repeatedly had occasion to say that Mr. Crawford possesses in an extraordinary degree the art of constructing a story. It is as if it could not have been written otherwise, so naturally does the story unfold itself, and so logical and consistent is the sequence of incident after incident. As a story, Marzio's Crucifix is perfectly constructed."--_New York Commercial Advertiser._

=Heart of Rome.= A Tale of the Lost Water
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5847

"Mr. Crawford has written a story of absorbing interest, a story with a genuine thrill in it; he has drawn his characters with a sure and brilliant touch, and he has said many things surpassingly well."--_New York Times Saturday Review._

=Cecilia.= A Story of Modern Rome
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/31723

"That F. Marion Crawford is a master of mystery needs no new telling.... His latest novel, _Cecilia_, is as weird as anything he has done since the memorable _Mr. Isaacs_.... A strong, interesting, dramatic story, with the picturesque Roman setting beautifully handled as only a master's touch could do it."--_Philadelphia Evening Telegraph._

=Whosoever Shall Offend=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/13932

"It is a story sustained from beginning to end by an ever increasing dramatic quality."--_New York Evening Post._

=Pietro Ghisleri=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/40922

"The imaginative richness, the marvellous ingenuity of plot, the power and subtlety of the portrayal of character, the charm of the romantic environment,--the entire atmosphere, indeed,--rank this novel at once among the great creations."--_The Boston Budget._

=To Leeward=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/40181

"The four characters with whose fortunes this novel deals, are, perhaps, the most brilliantly executed portraits in the whole of Mr. Crawford's long picture gallery, while for subtle insight into the springs of human passion and for swift dramatic action none of the novels surpasses this one."--_The News and Courier._

=A Lady of Rome=
http://archive.org/details/ladyofrome00crawrich

Mr. Crawford has no equal as a writer of brilliant cosmopolitan fiction, in which the characters really belong to the chosen scene and the story interest is strong. His novels possess atmosphere in a high degree.




Mr. F. MARION CRAWFORD'S NOVELS

Mr. Crawford has no equal as a writer of brilliant cosmopolitan fiction, in which the characters really belong to the chosen scene and the story interest is strong. His novels possess atmosphere in a high degree.


=Mr. Isaacs= (India)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/13340

Its scenes are laid in Simla, chiefly. This is the work which first placed its author among the most brilliant novelists of his day.

=Greifenstein= (The Black Forest)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6446

"... Another notable contribution to the literature of the day. It possesses originality in its conception and is a work of unusual ability. Its interest is sustained to the close, and it is an advance even on the previous work of this talented author. Like all Mr. Crawford's work, this novel is crisp, clear, and vigorous, and will be read with a great deal of interest."--New _York Evening Telegram._

=Zoroaster= (Persia)
http://archive.org/details/zoroaster00unkngoog

"It is a drama in the force of its situations and in the poetry and dignity of its language; but its men and women are not men and women of a play. By the naturalness of their conversation and behavior they seem to live and lay hold of our human sympathy more than the same characters on a stage could possibly do."--_The New York Times._

=Paul Patoff= (Constantinople)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/22879

"Mr. Crawford has a marked talent for assimilating local color, not to make mention of a broader historical sense. Even though he may adopt, as it is the romancer's right to do, the extreme romantic view of history, it is always a living and moving picture that he evolves for us, varied and stirring."--_New York Evening Post._

=Marietta= (Venice)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/16100

"No living writer can surpass Mr. Crawford in the construction of a complicated plot and the skilful unravelling of the tangled skein."--_Chicago Record-Herald._

"He has gone back to the field of his earlier triumphs, and has, perhaps, scored the greatest triumph of them all."--_New York Herald._




Mr. F. MARION CRAWFORD'S NOVELS

=Via Crucis.= A Romance of the Second Crusade.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/6350

"_Via Crucis_ ... A tale of former days, possessing an air of reality and an absorbing interest such as few writers since Scott have been able to accomplish when dealing with historical characters."--_Boston Transcript._

=In the Palace of the King= (Spain)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/13243

"_In the Palace of the King_ is a masterpiece; there is a picturesqueness, a sincerity which will catch all readers in an agreeable storm of emotion, and even leave a hardened reviewer impressed and delighted."--_Literature_, London.

=With the Immortals=
http://archive.org/details/withimmortals00crawgoog

"The strange central idea of the story could have occurred only to a writer whose mind was very sensitive to the current of modern thought and progress, while its execution, the setting it forth in proper literary clothing, could be successfully attempted only by one whose active literary ability should be fully equalled by his power of assimilative knowledge both literary and scientific, and no less by his courage and capacity for hard work. The book will be found to have a fascination entirely new for the habitual reader of novels. Indeed, Mr. Crawford has succeeded in taking his readers quite above the ordinary plane of novel interest."--_Boston Advertiser._

=Children of the King= (Calabria)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/15187

"One of the most artistic and exquisitely finished pieces of work that Crawford has produced. The picturesque setting, Calabria and its surroundings, the beautiful Sorrento and the Gulf of Salerno, with the bewitching accessories that climate, sea, and sky afford, give Mr. Crawford rich opportunities to show his rare descriptive powers. As a whole the book is strong and beautiful through its simplicity, and ranks among the choicest of the author's many fine productions."--_Public Opinion._

=A Cigarette Maker's Romance= (Munich)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/18651

"The interest is unflagging throughout. Never has Mr. Crawford done more brilliant realistic work than here. But his realism is only the case and cover for those intense feelings which, placed under no matter what humble conditions, produce the most dramatic and the most tragic situations.... This is a secret of genius, to take the most coarse and common material, the meanest surroundings, the most sordid material prospects, and out of the vehement passions which sometimes dominate all human beings to build up with these poor elements, scenes and passages the dramatic and emotional power of which at once enforce attention and awaken the profoundest interest."--_New York Tribune._

=Fair Margaret.= A Portrait
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/25838

"An exhilarating romance ... alluring in its naturalness and grace."--_Boston Herald._




Mr. F. MARION CRAWFORD'S NOVELS

WITH SCENES LAID IN ENGLAND AND AMERICA

=A Tale of a Lonely Parish=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/13597

"It is a pleasure to have anything so perfect of its kind as this brief and vivid story.... It is doubly a success, being full of human sympathy, as well as thoroughly artistic in its nice balancing of the unusual with the commonplace, the clever juxtaposition of innocence and guilt, comedy and tragedy, simplicity and intrigue."--_Critic._

=Dr. Claudius.= A True Story
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/15223

The scene changes from Heidelberg to New York, and much of the story develops during the ocean voyage.

"There is a satisfying quality in Mr. Crawford's strong, vital, forceful stories."--_Boston Herald._

=An American Politician.=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/7374

The scenes are laid in Boston

"It need scarcely be said that the story is skilfully and picturesquely written, portraying sharply individual characters in well-defined surroundings."-_New York Commercial Advertiser._

=The Three Fates=
http://archive.org/details/threefates00crawgoog

"Mr. Crawford has manifestly brought his best qualities as a student of human nature and his finest resources as a master of an original and picturesque style to bear upon this story. Taken for all in all, it is one of the most pleasing of all his productions in fiction, and it affords a view of certain phases of American, or perhaps we should say of New York, life that have not hitherto been treated with anything like the same adequacy and felicity."--_Boston Beacon._

=Marion Darche=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/33924

"Full enough of incident to have furnished material for three or four stories.... A most interesting and engrossing book. Every page unfolds new possibilities, and the incidents multiply rapidly."--_Detroit Free Press._

"We are disposed to rank Marion Darche as the best of Mr. Crawford's American stories."-_The Literary World._

=Katharine Lauderdale=
http://archive.org/details/katherinelauder00crawgoog

=The Ralstons.= A Sequel to "Katharine Lauderdale"
http://archive.org/details/theralstons00crawrich

"Mr. Crawford at his best is a great novelist, and in _Katharine Lauderdale_ we have him at his best."--_Boston Daily Advertiser._

"A most admirable novel, excellent in style, flashing with humor, and full of the ripest and wisest reflections upon men and women."--_The Westminster Gazette._

"It is the first time, we think, in American fiction that any such breadth of view has shown itself in the study of our social framework."--_Life._



Mr. WINSTON CHURCHILL'S NOVELS

=The Celebrity.= An Episode
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5387

"No such piece of inimitable comedy in a literary way has appeared for years.... It is the purest, keenest fun."--Chicago Inter-_Ocean._

=Richard Carvel= Illustrated
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5373

"... In breadth of canvas, massing of dramatic effect, depth of feeling, and rare wholesomeness of spirit, it has seldom, if ever, been surpassed by an American romance."--_Chicago Tribune._

=The Crossing= Illustrated
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/388

"_The Crossing_ is a thoroughly interesting book, packed with exciting adventure and sentimental incident, yet faithful to historical fact both in detail and in spirit."--_The Dial._

=The Crisis= Illustrated
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5396

"It is a charming love story, and never loses its interest... The intense political bitterness, the intense patriotism of both parties, are shown understandingly."--_Evening Telegraph_, Philadelphia.

=Coniston= Illustrated
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/3766

"Coniston has a lighter, gayer spirit, and a deeper, tenderer touch than Mr. Churchill has ever achieved before.... It is one of the truest and finest transcripts of modern American life thus far achieved in our fiction."--_Chicago Record-Herald._



Mr. JAMES LANE ALLEN'S NOVELS

=The Choir Invisible=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2316

"One reads the story for the story's sake, and then re-reads the book out of pure delight in its beauty. The story is American to the very core.... Mr. Allen stands to-day in the front rank of American novelists. _The Choir Invisible_ will solidify a reputation already established and bring into clear light his rare gifts as an artist. For this latest story is as genuine a work of art as has come from an American hand."--HAMILTON MABIE in _The Outlook_.

=The Reign of Law.= A Tale of the Kentucky Hempfields
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/3791

"Mr. Allen has a style as original and almost as perfectly finished as Hawthorne's, and he has also Hawthorne's fondness for spiritual suggestion that makes all his stories rich in the qualities that are lacking in so many novels of the period.... If read in the right way, it cannot fail to add to one's spiritual possessions."--_San Francisco Chronicle._

=Summer in Arcady.= A Tale of Nature
http://archive.org/details/summerinarcady00allerich

"This story by James Lane Allen is one of the gems of the season. It is artistic in its setting, realistic and true to nature and life in its descriptions, dramatic, pathetic, tragic, in its incidents; indeed, a veritable masterpiece that must become classic. It is difficult to give an outline of the story; it is one of the stories which do not outline; it must be read."--_Boston Daily Advertiser._

=The Mettle of the Pasture=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/12482

"It may be that _The Mettle of the Pasture_ will live and become a part of our literature; it certainly will live far beyond the allotted term of present-day fiction. Our principal concern is that it is a notable novel, that it ranks high in the range of American and English fiction, and that it is worth the reading, the re-reading, and the continuous appreciation of those who care for modern literature at its best."--By E. F. E. in the _Boston Transcript_.


_Shorter Stories_

=The Blue Grass Region of Kentucky=

=Flute and Violin, and Other Kentucky Tales=

=A Kentucky Cardinal=

=Aftermath.= A Sequel to "A Kentucky Cardinal"




Mr. EDEN PHILPOTTS'S NOVELS

=The American Prisoner= Illustrated

"Intensely readable ... perfectly admirable in its elemental humor and racy turns of speech."--_The Spectator_, London.

=The Secret Woman=

"There cannot be two opinions as to the interest and the power of _The Secret Woman_. It is not only its author's masterpiece, but it is far in advance of anything he has yet written--and that is to give it higher praise than almost any other comparison with contemporary fiction could afford."--Times Saturday Review.

=Knock at a Venture=

Sketches of the rustic life of Devon, rich in racy, quaint, and humorous touches.

=The Portreeve=




Mr. ROBERT HERRICK'S NOVELS

=The Gospel of Freedom=
http://archive.org/details/gospelfreedom01herrgoog

"A novel that may truly be called the greatest study of social life, in a broad and very much up-to-date sense, that has ever been contributed to American fiction."--_Chicago Inter-Ocean._

=The Web of Life=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/7828

"It is strong in that it faithfully depicts many phases of American life, and uses them to strengthen a web of fiction, which is most artistically wrought out."--_Buffalo Express._

=The Real World=
http://archive.org/details/realworld01herrgoog

"The title of the book has a subtle intention. It indicates, and is true to the verities in doing so, the strange dreamlike quality of life to the man who has not yet fought his own battles, or come into conscious possession of his will--only such battles bite into the consciousness."--_Chicago Tribune._

=The Common Lot=
http://archive.org/details/commonlot00herrgoog

"It grips the reader tremendously.... It is the drama of a human soul the reader watches ... the finest study of human motive that has appeared for many a day."--_The World To-day._

=The Memoirs of an American Citizen.=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/41338

"Mr. Herrick's book is a book among many, and he comes nearer to reflecting a certain kind of recognizable, contemporaneous American spirit than anybody has yet done."--_New York Times._

"Intensely absorbing as a story, it is also a crisp, vigorous document of startling significance. More than any other writer to-day he is giving us the American novel."--_New York Globe._




Mr. JACK LONDON'S NOVELS, etc.

=Before Adam=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/310

"The story moves with a wonderful sequence of interesting and
wholly credible events. The marvel of it all is not in the
story itself, but in the audacity of the man who undertook such
a task as the writing of it.... From an artistic standpoint the
book is an undoubted success. And it is no less a success from
the standpoint of the reader who seeks to be
entertained."--_The Plain Dealer_, Cleveland.

Mr. WILLIAM STEARNS DAVIS'S NOVELS

=A Friend of Cæsar=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/15694

"As a story ... there can be no question of its success.... While the beautiful love of Cornelia and Drusus lies at the sound sweet heart of the story, to say so is to give a most meagre idea of the large sustained interest of the whole.... There are many incidents so vivid, so brilliant, that they fix themselves in the memory."--NANCY HUSTON BANKS in _The Bookman_.

"=God Wills It.=" A Tale of the First Crusade.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/41549

"Not since Sir Walter Scott cast his spell over us with _Ivanhoe, Count Robert of Paris_, and _Quentin Durward_ have we been so completely captivated by a story as by '_God Wills It_.' It grips the attention of the reader in the first chapter and holds it till the last."--_Christian Endeavor World._

=Falaise of the Blessed Voice.= A Tale of the Youth of St. Louis, King of France

"In this tale of the youth of Louis, King of France and afterward saint in the calendar of the Catholic Church, Mr. Davis has fulfilled the promises contained in _A Friend of Cæsar_ and '_God Wills It_.' The novel is not only interesting and written with skill in the scenes which are really dramatic, but it is convincing in its character drawing and its analysis of motives."--_Evening Post_, New York.

=A Victor of Salamis.= A Tale of the Days of Xerxes, Leonidas, and Themistocles
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/27587

"An altogether admirable picture of Hellenic life and Hellenic ideals. It is just such a book as will convey to the average reader what is the eternal value of Greek Life to the world ... carried breathlessly along by a style which never poses, and yet is always strong and dignified.... This remarkable book takes its place with the best of historical fiction. Those who have made their acquaintance with the characters in the days of their youth will find delight in the remembrance. Those who would fain learn something of the golden days of Greece could not do better than use Mr. Davis for guide."--_The Daily Post_, Liverpool.

"It is seldom that the London critics admit that an American may wear the mantle of Scott, but they are declaring that this book entitles Mr. Davis to a place among novelists not far below the author of _The Talisman_."




MABEL OSGOOD WRIGHT'S NOVELS, etc.

=The Garden of a Commuter's Wife.=
http://archive.org/details/gardenofcommuter00wrigiala

"Reading it is like having the entry into a home of the class that is the proudest product of our land, a home where love of books and love of nature go hand in hand with hearty simple love of 'folks.'... It is a charming book."--_The Interior._

=People of the Whirlpool= Illustrated
http://archive.org/details/peopleofthewhirl11561gut

"The whole book is delicious, with its wise and kindly humor, its just perspective of the true values of things, its clever pen pictures of people and customs, and its healthy optimism for the great world in general."--_Philadelphia Evening Telegraph._

=The Woman Errant=
http://archive.org/details/womanerrantbein00compgoog

"The book is worth reading. It will cause discussion. It is an interesting, fictional presentation of an important modern question, treated with fascinating feminine adroitness."--Miss JEANNETTE GILDER in _The Chicago Tribune_.

=At the Sign of the Fox=
http://archive.org/details/atsignfoxaroman00gleegoog

"Her little pictures of country life are fragrant with a genuine love of nature, and there is fun as genuine in her notes on rural character. A travelling pieman is one of her most lovable personages; another is Tatters, a dog, who is humanly winsome and wise, and will not soon be forgotten by the reader of this very entertaining book."--_New York Tribune._

=The Garden, You and I=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/17514

"This volume is simply the best she has yet put forth, and quite too deliciously torturing to the reviewer, whose only garden is in Spain.... The delightful humor which persuaded the earlier books, and without which Barbara would not be Barbara, has lost nothing of its poignancy, and would make _The Garden, You and I_ pleasant reading even to the man who doesn't know a pink from a phlox or a _Daphne cneorum_ from a Cherokee rose."--Congregationalist._




Mr. MARK LEE LUTHER'S NOVELS

=The Henchman=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/19148

"It wins admiration on almost every page by the cleverness of its inventions."--CHURCHILL WILLIAMS in _The Bookman_.

=The Mastery=
http://archive.org/details/masteryx00luthiala

"A story of really notable power remarkable for its strength."--_Times._




Mr. and Mrs. CASTLE'S NOVELS

=The Pride of Jennico=
http://archive.org/details/prideofjennicobe00cast

"This lively story has a half-historic flavor which adds to its interest ... told with an intensity of style which almost takes away the breath of the reader."--_Boston Transcript._

=If Youth But Knew=
http://archive.org/details/ifyouthbutknew00castiala

"They should be the most delightful of comrades, for their writing is so apt, so responsive, so joyous, so saturated with the promptings and the glamour of spring. It is because _If Youth But Knew_ has all these adorable qualities that it is so fascinating."--_Cleveland Leader._




Mr. JOHN LUTHER LONG'S NOVELS, etc.

=The Way of the Gods=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/33616

"There can be no doubt as to the artistic quality of his story. It rings true with the golden ring of chivalry and of woman's love, it rings true for all lovers of romance, wherever they be, ... and is told with an art worthy of the idea."--_New York Mail._

=Heimweh and Other Stories=
http://archive.org/details/heimwehsirenload00longrich

"As in _Madam Butterfly_ his subtle appreciation of love's tender mystery creates an exquisite thrill of 'the heavenly longing--for the love--the loved ones' the one thing that through poverty and age can keep the door open to joy."--_New York Times._




Miss BEULAH MARIE DIX'S NOVELS, etc.

=The Making of Christopher Ferringham=
http://archive.org/details/makingchristoph00dixgoog

"In brilliancy, exciting interest, and verisimilitude, _The Making of Christopher Ferringham_ is one of the best of the semi-historical novels of the day, and not unworthy of comparison with Maurice Hewlett's best."--_Boston Advertiser._

=The Life, Treason, and Death of James Blount of Breckenhow=

"A novel that may fairly challenge comparison with the very best, telling the story of treason and a love, of many good fights, a few mistakes, and a good death at the last."--_The Boston Transcript._

=The Fair Maid of Greystones=

"The plot of _The Fair Maid of Greystones_ is not unworthy of Weyman at his best. This is strong praise, but it is deserved. From the moment Jack Hetherington, the Cavalier volunteer, assumes the identity of his blackguard cousin, and thus escapes certain death to face the responsibility for his kinsman's dark deeds, until the end, which is sanely happy, the adventure never flags. This is one of the few historical novels in whose favor an exception may well be made by those who long since lost interest in the school."--_New York Mail._




Mr. CHARLES MAJOR'S NOVELS

=Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall.=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/14671

"Dorothy is a splendid creation, a superb creature of brains, beauty, force, capacity, and passion, a riot of energy, love, and red blood. She is the fairest, fiercest, strongest, tenderest heroine that ever woke up a jaded novel reader and made him realize that life will be worth living so long as the writers of fiction create her like.... The story has brains, 'go,' virility, gumption, and originality."--_The Boston Herald._

=A Forest Hearth.= A Romance of Indiana in the Thirties
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/29486

"This work is a novel full of charm and action, picturing the life and love of the fascinating indomitably adventurous men and women, boys and girls, who developed Indiana. It is a vigorous, breezy, outdoor book, with the especial intimate touch that is possible only when the subject is one which has long lain close to its author's heart."--_Daily News._

=Yolanda, Maid of Burgundy=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/12057

"Charles Major has done the best work of his life in _Yolanda_. The volume is a genuine romance ... and after the reviewer has become surfeited with problem novels, it is like coming out into the sunlight to read the fresh, sweet story of her love for Max."--_The World To-day._




Mr. JOHN OXENHAM'S NOVEL

=The Long Road=
http://archive.org/details/longroadanovel00oxenrich

"Not since Robert Louis Stevenson has there appeared a writer of English who can so thoroughly serve his turn with simple Anglo-Saxon phrases ... invested with sympathetic interest, convincing sincerity, and indefinable charm of romance."--_North American._

"It is original both in plot and in treatment, and its skilful mingling of idyllic beauty and tragedy plays curious tricks with one's emotions ... and leaves an impression of happiness and spiritual uplift. It is a story that any man or woman will be the better for reading."--_Record-Herald_, Chicago.




Mr. MAURICE HEWLETT'S NOVELS

=The Forest Lovers=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/8934

"The book is a joy to read and to remember, a source of clean and pure delight to the spiritual sense, a triumph of romance reduced to the essentials, and interpreted with a mastery of expression that is well-nigh beyond praise."--_The Dial._

=The Life and Death of Richard Yea-and-Nay=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/14813

"Mr. Hewlett has done one of the most notable things in recent literature, a thing to talk about with bated breath, as a bit of master-craftsmanship touched by the splendid dignity of real creation."--_The Interior._

=The Queen's Quair=
http://archive.org/details/queensquair00hewlgoog

"_The Queen's Quair_ is, from every point of view, a notable contribution to historical portraiture in its subtlety, its vividness of color, its consistency, and its fascination... Above all, it is intensely interesting."--_The Outlook._

=The Fool Errant=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5755

"It is full of excellent description, of amusing characters, and of picaresque adventure brilliantly related ... with infinite humor and vivacity."--_The New York Herald._

=Little Novels of Italy=
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/20929

"These singularly romantic stories are so true to their locality that they read almost like translations."--_New York Times._

=New Canterbury Tales=
http://archive.org/details/newcanterburyta01hewlgoog

"In the key and style of the author's Little Novels of Italy, it shows again the brilliant qualities of that remarkable book; ... daring but successful."--_New York Tribune._

THE EAGLE SERIES
Principally Copyrights Elegant Colored Covers
"THE RIGHT BOOKS AT THE RIGHT PRICE"


While the books in the New Eagle Series are undoubtedly better value, being bigger books, the stories offered to the public in this line must not be underestimated. There are over four hundred copyrighted books by famous authors, which cannot be had in any other line. No other publisher in the world has a line that contains so many different titles, nor can any publisher ever hope to secure books that will match those in the Eagle Series in quality.

This is the pioneer line of copyrighted novels, and that it has struck popular fancy just right is proven by the fact that for fifteen years it has been the first choice of American readers. The only reason that we can afford to give such excellent reading at such a low price is that our unlimited capital and great organization enable us to manufacture books more cheaply and to sell more of them without expensive advertising, than any other publishers.

ALL TITLES ALWAYS IN PRINT

TO THE PUBLIC:—These books are sold by news dealers everywhere. If your dealer does not keep them, and will not get them for you, send direct to the publishers, in which case four cents must be added to the price per copy to cover postage.

Announcement of List of New Fiction.


Philip Winwood. (35th thousand.)
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/15506
A Sketch of the Domestic History of an American Captain in the War of Independence, embracing events that occurred between and during the years 1763 and 1785 in New York and London. Written by his Enemy in War, Herbert Russell, Lieutenant in the Loyalist Forces. Presented anew by Robert Neilson Stephens, author of "A Gentleman Player," "An Enemy to the King," etc.
With six full-page illustrations by E. W. D. Hamilton.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 400 pages $1.50
"One of the most stirring and remarkable romances that has been published in a long while, and its episodes, incidents, and actions are as interesting and agreeable as they are vivid and dramatic.... The print, illustrations, binding, etc., are worthy of the tale, and the author and his publishers are to be congratulated on a literary work of fiction which is as wholesome as it is winsome, as fresh and artistic as it is interesting and entertaining from first to last paragraph."—Boston Times.

Breaking the Shackles. By Frank Barrett. Author of "A Set of Rogues."
https://archive.org/details/breakingshackle00barrgoog
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 350 pages $1.50
"The story opens well, and maintains its excellence throughout.... The author's triumph is the greater in the unquestionable interest and novelty which he achieves. The pictures of prison life are most vivid, and the story of the escape most thrilling."—The Freeman's Journal, London.

The Progress of Pauline Kessler. By Frederic Carrel. Author of "Adventures of John Johns."
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 350 pages $1.50
A novel that will be widely read and much discussed. A powerful sketch of an adventuress who has much of the Becky Sharpe in her. The story is crisply written and told with directness and insight into the ways of social and political life. The characters are strong types of the class to which they belong.

Ada Vernham, Actress. By Richard Marsh. Author of "Frivolities," "Tom Ossington's Ghost," etc.
https://archive.org/details/adavernhamactres00mars
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 300 pages $1.50
This is a new book by the author of "Frivolities," which was extremely well received last season. It deals with the inside life of the London stage, and is of absorbing interest.

Edward Barry: South Sea Pearler. By Louis Becke. Author of "By Reef and Palm," "Ridan, the Devil," etc.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/23440
With four full-page illustrations by H. C. Edwards.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 300 pages $1.50
An exceedingly interesting story of sea life and adventure, the scene of which is laid in the Lagoon Islands of the Pacific.
This is the first complete novel from the pen of Mr. Becke, and readers of his collections of short stories will quickly recognize that the author can write a novel that will grip the reader. Strong, and even tragic, as is his novel in the main, "Edward Barry" has a happy ending, and woman's love and devotion are strongly portrayed.

Unto the Heights of Simplicity. By Johannes Reimers.
https://archive.org/details/untoheightsofsim00reimiala
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 300 pages $1.25
We take pleasure in introducing to the reading public a writer of unique charm and individuality. His style is notable for its quaint poetic idiom and subtle imaginative flavor. In the present story, he treats with strength and reticence of the relation of the sexes and the problem of marriage. Certain social abuses and false standards of morality are attacked with great vigor, yet the plot is so interesting for its own sake that the book gives no suspicion of being a problem novel. The descriptions of natural scenery are idyllic in their charm, and form a fitting background for the love story.

The Black Terror. A Romance of Russia. By John K. Leys.
With frontispiece by Victor A. Searles.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 350 pages $1.50
A stirring tale of the present day, presenting in a new light the aims and objects of the Nihilists. The story is so vivid and true to life that it might easily be considered a history of political intrigue in Russia, disguised as a novel, while its startling incidents and strange dénouement would only confirm the old adage that "truth is stranger than fiction," and that great historical events may be traced to apparently insignificant causes. The hero of the story is a young Englishman, whose startling resemblance to the Czar is taken advantage of by the Nihilists for the furtherance of their plans.

The Baron's Sons. By Maurus Jokai.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/34674
Author of "Black Diamonds," "The Green Book," "Pretty Michal," etc. Translated by Percy F. Bicknell.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, with photogravure portrait of the author, 350 pages $1.50
An exceedingly interesting romance of the revolution of 1848, the scene of which is laid at the courts of St. Petersburg, Moscow, and Vienna, and in the armies of the Austrians and Hungarians. It follows the fortunes of three young Hungarian noblemen, whose careers are involved in the historical incidents of the time. The story is told with all of Jokai's dash and vigor, and is exceedingly interesting. This romance has been translated for us directly from the Hungarian, and never has been issued hitherto in English.

Slaves of Chance. By Ferrier Langworthy.
With five portraits of the heroines, from original drawings by Hiel.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 350 pages $1.50
As a study of some of the realities of London life, this novel is one of notable merit. The slaves of chance, and, it might be added, of temptation, are five pretty girls, the daughters of a pretty widow, whose means are scarcely sufficient, even living as they do, in a quiet way and in a quiet London street, to make both ends meet. Dealing, as he does, with many sides of London life, the writer sketches varied types of character, and his creations are cleverly defined. He tells an interesting tale with delicacy and in a fresh, attractive style.

Her Boston Experiences. By Margaret Allston (nom de plume).
https://archive.org/details/herbostonexperie00berg
With eighteen full-page illustrations from drawings by Frank O. Small, and from photographs taken especially for the book.
Small 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 225 pages $1.25
A most interesting and vivacious tale, dealing with society life at the Hub, with perhaps a tinge of the flavor of Vagabondia. The story has appeared serially in The Ladies' Home Journal, where it was received with marked success. We are not as yet at liberty to give the true name of the author, who hides her identity under the pen name, Margaret Allston, but she is well known in literature.

Memory Street. By Martha Baker Dunn. Author of "The Sleeping Beauty," etc.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 300 pages $1.25
An exceedingly beautiful story, delineating New England life and character. The style and interest will compare favorably with the work of such writers as Mary E. Wilkins, Kate Douglas Wiggin, and Sarah Orne Jewett. The author has been a constant contributor to the leading magazines, and the interest of her previous work will assure welcome for her first novel.

Winefred. A Story of the Chalk Cliffs. By S. Baring Gould. Author of "Mehala," etc.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/53567
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated, 350 pages $1.50
A striking novel of English life in the eighteenth century by this well known writer. The scene is laid partly in rural Devonshire, and partly in aristocratic London circles.

At the Court of the King: Being Romances of France. By G. Hembert Westley, editor of "For Love's Sweet Sake."
With a photogravure frontispiece from an original drawing.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 300 pages $1.25
Despite the prophecies of some literary experts, the historical romance is still on the high tide of popular favor, as exemplified by many recent successes. We feel justified, consequently, in issuing these stirring romances of intrigue and adventure, love and war, at the Courts of the French Kings.

God's Rebel. By Hulbert Fuller. Author of "Vivian of Virginia."
https://archive.org/details/godsrebel00full
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 375 pages $1.25
A powerful story of sociological questions. The scene is laid in Chicago, the hero being a professor in "Rockland University," whose protest against the unequal distribution of wealth and the wretched condition of workmen gains for him the enmity of the "Savior Oil Company," through whose influence he loses his position. His after career as a leader of laborers who are fighting to obtain their rights is described with great earnestness. The character drawing is vigorous and varied, and the romantic plot holds the interest throughout. The Albany Journal is right in pronouncing this novel "an unusually strong story." It can hardly fail to command an immense reading public.

A Georgian Actress. By Pauline Bradford Mackie. Author of "Mademoiselle de Berny," "Ye Lyttle Salem Maide," etc.
https://archive.org/details/georgianactress00hopkiala
With four full-page illustrations from drawings by E. W. D. Hamilton.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 300 pages $1.50
An interesting romance of the days of George III., dealing with the life and adventures of a fair and talented young play-actress, the scene of which is laid in England and America. The success of Miss Mackie's previous books will justify our prediction that a new volume will receive an instant welcome.

God—The King—My Brother. A Romance. By Mary F. Nixon. Author of "With a Pessimist in Spain," "A Harp of Many Chords," etc.
With a frontispiece by H. C. Edwards.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 300 pages $1.25
An historical tale, dealing with the romantic period of Edward the Black Prince. The scene is laid for the most part in the sunny land of Spain, during the reign of Pedro the Cruel—the ally in war of the Black Prince. The well-told story records the adventures of two young English knight-errants, twin brothers, whose family motto gives the title to the book. The Spanish maid, the heroine of the romance, is a delightful characterization, and the love story, with its surprising yet logical dénouement, is enthralling.

Punchinello. By Florence Stuart.
https://archive.org/details/punchinello00stuarich
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 325 pages $1.50
A love story of intense power and pathos. The hero is a hunch-back (Punchinello), who wins the love of a beautiful young girl. Her sudden death, due indirectly to his jealousy, and the discovery that she had never faltered in her love for him, combine to unbalance his mind. The poetic style relieves the sadness of the story, and the reader is impressed with the power and brilliancy of its conception, as well as with the beauty and grace of the execution.

The Golden Fleece. Translated from the French of Amédée Achard, author of "The Huguenot's Love," etc.
https://archive.org/details/goldenfleecelat01achagoog
Illustrated by Victor A. Searles.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated, 450 pages $1.50
Amédée Achard was a contemporary writer of Dumas, and his romances are very similar to those of that great writer. "The Golden Fleece" compares favorably with "The Three Musketeers" and the other D'Artagnan romances. The story relates the adventures of a young Gascon gentleman, an officer in the army sent by Louis XIV. to assist the Austrians in repelling the Turkish Invasion under the celebrated Achmet Kiuperli.

The Good Ship York. By W. Clark Russell. Author of "The Wreck of the Grosvenor," "A Sailor's Sweetheart," etc.
https://archive.org/details/mateofgoodshipyo00russiala
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, illustrated, 350 pages $1.50
A romantic and exciting sea tale, equal to the best work of this famous writer, relating the momentous voyage of the clipper ship York, and the adventures that befell Julia Armstrong, a passenger, and George Hardy, the chief mate.
"Mr. Russell has no rival in the line of marine fiction."—Mail and Express.

The Glory and Sorrow of Norwich. By M. M. Blake. Author of "The Blues and the Brigands," etc., etc., with twelve full-page illustrations.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, gilt top, 315 pages $1.50
The hero of this romance, Sir John de Reppes, is an actual personage, and throughout the characters and incidents are instinct with the spirit of the age, as related in the chronicles of Froissart. Its main claim for attention, however, is in the graphic representation of the age of chivalry which it gives, forming a series of brilliant and fascinating pictures of mediæval England, its habits of thought and manner of life, which live in the mind for many a day after perusal, and assist to a clearer conception of what is one of the most charming and picturesque epochs of history.

The Mistress of Maidenwood. By Hulbert Fuller. Author of "Vivian of Virginia," "God's Rebel," etc.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 350 pages $1.50
A stirring historical romance of the American Revolution, the scene of which for the most part being laid in and about the debatable ground in the vicinity of New York City.

Dauntless. A Tale of a Lost Cause. By Captain Ewan Martin. Author of "The Knight of King's Guard."
https://archive.org/details/dauntlessastory00ewangoog
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 400 pages, illustrated $1.50
A stirring romance of the days of Charles I. and Cromwell in England and Ireland. In its general character the book invites comparison with Scott's "Waverley." It well sustains the reputation gained by Captain Martin from "The Knight of King's Guard."

The Flame of Life. (Il Fuoco.) Translated from the Italian of Gabriel D'Annunzio, author of "Triumph of Death," etc., by Kassandra Vivaria, author of "Via Lucis."
https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.95828
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 350 pages $1.50
This is the first volume in the Third Trilogy, "The Romances of the Pomegranate," of the three announced by the great Italian writer. We were fortunate in securing the book, and also in securing the services as translator of the talented author of "Via Lucis," herself an Italian by birth.

Via Lucis. By Kassandra Vivaria.
https://archive.org/details/vialucisanovel00vivagoog
With portrait of the author.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 480 pages $1.50
"'Via Lucis' is—we say it unhesitatingly—a striking and interesting production."—London Athenæum.
"Without doubt the most notable novel of the summer is this strong story of Italian life, so full of local color one can almost see the cool, shaded patios and the flame of the pomegranate blossom, and smell the perfume of the grapes growing on the hillsides. It is a story of deep and passionate heart interests, of fierce loves and fiercer hates, of undisciplined natures that work out their own bitter destiny of woe. There has hardly been a finer piece of portraiture than that of the child Arduina,—the child of a sickly and unloved mother and a cruel and vindictive father,—a morbid, queer, lonely little creature, who is left to grow up without love or training of any kind."—New Orleans Picayune.

With sixty illustrations from original drawings by Felix Régamey.

Close acquaintance with the manners and customs of the Chinese has enabled the author to write a story which is instructive as well as interesting.

The plot is cleverly conceived and well worked out, and the story abounds with incidents of the most exciting and sensational character. Enjoyment of its perusal is increased by the powerful illustrations of Felix Régamey.

https://archive.org/details/lallybrigade00macmgoog
Illustrated.
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 250 pages $1.25
The scene of this romance is partly at the siege of Crimona (held by the troops of Louis XIV.) by the Austrian forces under Prince Eugene. During the siege the famous Irish Brigade renders valiant service, and the hero—a dashing young Irishman—is in the thick of the fighting. He is also able to give efficient service in unravelling a political intrigue, in which the love affairs of the hero and the heroine are interwoven.

Frivolities. Especially Addressed to those who are Tired of being Serious. By Richard Marsh. Author of "Tom Ossington's Ghost," etc.
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/40454
Library 12mo, cloth decorative, 340 pages $1.50
A dozen stories in an entirely new vein for Mr. Marsh. The humor is irresistible, and carries the reader on breathlessly from one laugh to another. The style, though appealing to a totally different side of complex human nature, is as strong and effective as the author's intense and dramatic work in "Tom Ossington's Ghost."

Spanish conspiracies against the peace of good Queen Bess, a vivid description of the raise of the Spanish siege of Leyden by the combined Dutch and English forces, sea fights, the recovery of stolen treasure, are all skilfully woven elements in a plot of unusual strength."—Pittsburg Bulletin.

"The writer of the greatest promise to-day in Italy, and perhaps one of the most unique figures in contemporary literature, is Gabriel d'Annunzio, the poet-novelist."—The Bookman.
"This book is realistic. Some say that it is brutally so. But the realism is that of Flaubert and not of Zola. There is no plain speaking for the sake of plain speaking. Every detail is justified in the fact that it illuminates either the motives or the actions of the man and woman who here stand revealed. It is deadly true. The author holds the mirror up to nature, and the reader, as he sees his own experiences duplicated in passage after passage, has something of the same sensation as all of us know on the first reading of George Meredith's 'Egoist.' Reading these pages is like being out in the country on a dark night in a storm. Suddenly a flash of lightning comes and every detail of your surroundings is revealed."—Review of the Triumph of Death, in the New York Evening Sun.

With four full-page photogravures from drawings by E. W. D. Hamilton.
Printed on deckle-edged paper, with gilt top, and bound in cloth decorative, 321 pages $1.50
A tale of the days of the reign of superstition in New England, and of a brave "lyttle maide" of Salem Town, whose faith and hope and unyielding adherence to her word of honor form the basis of a most attractive story. Several historical characters are introduced, including the Rev. Cotton Mather and Governor and Lady Phipps, and a very convincing picture is drawn of Puritan life during the latter part of the seventeenth century. An especial interest is added to the book by the illustrations, reproduced by the photogravure process from originals by E. W. D. Hamilton.

8vo, cloth decorative, 500 pages $1.50
"The peculiar genre, for which, in a literary sense, all must acknowledge obligation to the author of a new type, is the Dutch-American species. The church-goings, the courtings, the pleasures and sorrows of a primitive people, their lives and deaths, weddings, suicides, births, and burials, are Rembrandt and Rubens pictures on a fresh canvas."—Boston Transcript.
"The fine ideal of womanhood in a person never once physically described will gratify the highest tone of the period, and is an ennobling conception."—Time and the Hour, Boston.

"Mr. Fuller will find a large circle of readers for his romance who will not be disappointed in their pleasant expectations."—Boston Transcript.
"Instead of using history as a background for the exploits of the hero, the author used the hero to bring out history and the interesting events of those early days in Virginia. The author has preserved the language and customs of the times admirably."—Philadelphia Telegram.

A Mad Madonna and Other Stories. By L. Clarkson Whitelock.
With eight half-tone illustrations.
1 vol., large 16mo, cloth decorative $1.00
A half dozen remarkable psychological stories, delicate in color and conception. Each of the six has a touch of the supernatural, a quick suggestion, a vivid intensity, and a dreamy realism that is matchless in its forceful execution.

For Young People

BY POPULAR WRITERS.
97-99-101 Reade Street, New York.

The Lion of the North: A Tale of Gustavus Adolphus and the Wars of Religion. By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by John Schönberg. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

In this story Mr. Henty gives the history of the first part of the Thirty Years' War. The issue had its importance, which has extended to the present day, as it established religious freedom in Germany. The army of the chivalrous king of Sweden was largely composed of Scotchmen, and among these was the hero of the story.

"The tale is a clever and instructive piece of history and as boys may be trusted to read it conscientiously, they can hardly fail to be profited."—Times.

By England's Aid; or, The Freeing of the Netherlands (1585-1604). By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by Alfred Pearse, and Maps. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

The story of two English lads who go to Holland as pages in the service of one of "the fighting Veres." After many adventures by sea and land, one of the lads finds himself on board a Spanish ship at the time of the defeat of the Armada, and escapes only to fall into the hands of the Corsairs. He is successful in getting back to Spain under the protection of a wealthy merchant, and regains his native country after the capture of Cadiz.

"It is an admirable book for youngsters. It overflows with stirring incident and exciting adventure, and the color of the era and of the scene are finely reproduced. The illustrations add to its attractiveness."—Boston Gazette.

By Right of Conquest; or, With Cortez in Mexico. By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by W. S. Stacey, and Two Maps. 12mo, cloth, price $1.50.

The conquest of Mexico by a small band of resolute men under the magnificent leadership of Cortez is always rightly ranked among the most romantic and daring exploits in history. With this as the ground work of his story Mr. Henty has interwoven the adventures of an English youth, Roger Hawkshaw, the sole survivor of the good ship Swan, which had sailed from a Devon port to challenge the mercantile supremacy of the Spaniards in the New World. He is beset by many perils among the natives, but is saved by his own judgment and strength, and by the devotion of an Aztec princess. At last by a ruse he obtains the protection of the Spaniards, and after the fall of Mexico he succeeds in regaining his native shore, with a fortune and a charming Aztec bride.

"'By Right of Conquest' is the nearest approach to a perfectly successful historical tale that Mr. Henty has yet published."—Academy.

With Wolfe in Canada; or, The Winning of a Continent. By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

In the present volume Mr. Henty gives an account of the struggle between Britain and France for supremacy in the North American continent. On the issue of this war depended not only the destinies of North America, but to a large extent those of the mother countries themselves. The fall of Quebec decided that the Anglo-Saxon race should predominate in the New World; that Britain, and not France, should take the lead among the nations of Europe; and that English and American commerce, the English language, and English literature, should spread right round the globe.

"It is not only a lesson in history as instructively as it is graphically told, but also a deeply interesting and often thrilling tale of adventure and peril by flood and field."—Illustrated London News.

A Final Reckoning: A Tale of Bush Life in Australia. By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by W. B. Wollen. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

The hero, a young English lad, after rather a stormy boyhood, emigrates to Australia, and gets employment as an officer in the mounted police. A few years of active work on the frontier, where he has many a brush with both natives and bushrangers, gain him promotion to a captaincy, and he eventually settles down to the peaceful life of a squatter.

"Mr. Henty has never published a more readable, a more carefully constructed, or a better written story than this."—Spectator.

By Sheer Pluck: A Tale of the Ashanti War. By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

The author has woven, in a tale of thrilling interest, all the details of the Ashanti campaign, of which he was himself a witness. His hero, after many exciting adventures in the interior, is detained a prisoner by the king just before the outbreak of the war, but escapes, and accompanies the English expedition on their march to Coomassie.

"Mr. Henty keeps up his reputation as a writer of boys' stories. 'By Sheer Pluck' will be eagerly read."—Athenæum.

Captain Kidd's Gold: The True Story of an Adventurous Sailor Boy. By James Franklin Fitts. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

There is something fascinating to the average youth in the very idea of buried treasure. A vision arises before his eyes of swarthy Portuguese and Spanish rascals, with black beards and gleaming eyes—sinister-looking fellows who once on a time haunted the Spanish Main, sneaking out from some hidden creek in their long, low schooner, of picaroonish rake and sheer, to attack an unsuspecting trading craft. There were many famous sea rovers in their day, but none more celebrated than Capt. Kidd. Perhaps the most fascinating tale of all is Mr. Fitts' true story of an adventurous American boy, who receives from his dying father an ancient bit of vellum, which the latter obtained in a curious way. The document bears obscure directions purporting to locate a certain island in the Bahama group, and a considerable treasure buried there by two of Kidd's crew. The hero of this book, Paul Jones Garry, is an ambitious, persevering lad, of salt-water New England ancestry, and his efforts to reach the island and secure the money form one of the most absorbing tales for our youth that has come from the press.

For Name and Fame; or, Through Afghan Passes. By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

An interesting story of the last war in Afghanistan. The hero, after being wrecked and going through many stirring adventures among the Malays, finds his way to Calcutta and enlists in a regiment proceeding to join the army at the Afghan passes. He accompanies the force under General Roberts to the Peiwar Kotal, is wounded, taken prisoner, carried to Cabul, whence he is transferred to Candahar, and takes part in the final defeat of the army of Ayoub Khan.

"The best feature of the book—apart from the interest of its scenes of adventure—is its honest effort to do justice to the patriotism of the Afghan people."—Daily News.

Captured by Apes: The Wonderful Adventures of a Young Animal Trainer. By Harry Prentice. 12mo, cloth, $1.00.

The scene of this tale is laid on an island in the Malay Archipelago. Philip Garland, a young animal collector and trainer, of New York, sets sail for Eastern seas in quest of a new stock of living curiosities. The vessel is wrecked off the coast of Borneo and young Garland, the sole survivor of the disaster, is cast ashore on a small island, and captured by the apes that overrun the place. The lad discovers that the ruling spirit of the monkey tribe is a gigantic and vicious baboon, whom he identifies as Goliah, an animal at one time in his possession and with whose instruction he had been especially diligent. The brute recognizes him, and with a kind of malignant satisfaction puts his former master through the same course of training he had himself experienced with a faithfulness of detail which shows how astonishing is monkey recollection. Very novel indeed is the way by which the young man escapes death. Mr. Prentice has certainly worked a new vein on juvenile fiction, and the ability with which he handles a difficult subject stamps him as a writer of undoubted skill.

The Bravest of the Brave; or, With Peterborough in Spain. By G. A. Henty. With full-page Illustrations by H. M. Paget. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

There are few great leaders whose lives and actions have so completely fallen into oblivion as those of the Earl of Peterborough. This is largely due to the fact that they were overshadowed by the glory and successes of Marlborough. His career as general extended over little more than a year, and yet, in that time, he showed a genius for warfare which has never been surpassed.

"Mr. Henty never loses sight of the moral purpose of his work—to enforce the doctrine of courage and truth. Lads will read 'The Bravest of the Brave' with pleasure and profit; of that we are quite sure."—Daily Telegraph.

With Washington at Monmouth: A Story of Three Philadelphia Boys. By James Otis. 12mo, cloth, price $1.00.

Three Philadelphia boys, Seth Graydon "whose mother conducted a boarding-house which was patronized by the British officers;" Enoch Ball, "son of that Mrs. Ball whose dancing school was situated on Letitia Street," and little Jacob, son of "Chris, the Baker," serve as the principal characters. The story is laid during the winter when Lord Howe held possession of the city, and the lads aid the cause by assisting the American spies who make regular and frequent visits from Valley Forge. One reads here of home-life in the captive city when bread was scarce among the people of the lower classes, and a reckless prodigality shown by the British officers, who passed the winter in feasting and merry-making while the members of the patriot army but a few miles away were suffering from both cold and hunger. The story abounds with pictures of Colonial life skillfully drawn, and the glimpses of Washington's soldiers which are given show that the work has not been hastily done, or without considerable study.

This volume is a collection of some of the best studies of Mr. W. R. Titterton, one of the most brilliant journalists of the Modern School, whose volume "Love Poems" has been one of the successes of the publishing season.

"Studies in Solitary Life" is not a collection of stories with plots, but rather true life studies and character sketches of unattractive people from the worldly standpoint.

Tramps, beggar-children, ledger-clerks, bohemian town-dwellers and all lonely people claim the author's sympathy, and his virile pen presents their surroundings and emotions so powerfully and realistically that the reader at once feels personally acquainted with the characters portrayed. When the reader has finished the book, he will find that he has been listening to a startling indictment and a triumphal justification of Life.

LOVE POEMS, By W. R. Titterton.

"Sincere, but somewhat realistic ... a good many deal with the misery of base passion and lost women."—The Times.

"His pen is a whip that cuts to the bone of life. He is restrained by no conventions."—The Daily News.

"The author deals sympathetically with love themes seldom touched on except in poetry more or less pagan in outlook."—The Glasgow Herald.
A Second Edition in now in the Press

NEW TRUTHS FOR OLD. By Robb Lawson.

They deal with the following subjects:—

The Decay of Individuality.
The Futility of Speech.
Plain Writing.
The Failure of Success.
The Temptations of Enthusiasm.
Of the Sorrow of Wisdom.
Combativeness.
The Worth of Attitude.
On Second-Hand Minds.
The Use of Enemies.
On Reading Great Lives.
Woman.
On Self-Sacrifice.
Discipline.

BALLAD OF A GREAT CITY. By David Lowe.

A charming volume of metrical comedies, ballads, and lyrics. Glasgow is referred to in the title ballad, many of the rest are steeped in traditional lore, and the two comedies are metrical versions of old Scots folk-tales.

"There are in the book many charming lyrical poems which ... show always the sentiment of a latter-day singer playing sweetly and gracefully round the sempiternal themes of poetry. The two Comedies are clever, simple, and fresh. The book will be read with especial interest by lovers of Poetry who favour Scottish themes."—The Scotsman.

"The author has talent; his work flows easily and 'lets itself be read.'"—The Birmingham Post.

"... A good deal in the vein of Burns. The author is a pleasant versifier."—The Times.

"The poems show distinct lyrical faculty. The author's management of various metres is throughout true and musical."—Aberdeen Daily Journal.

"These poems treat of the common interests of daily life ... appeal to a wide audience, and are sure to give widespread pleasure."—Aberdeen Free Press.

By the Same Author
GIFT OF THE NIGHT (Poems).


"Interesting to a serious lover of poetry."—The Scotsman.

A MAN OF LEISURE (Play).

"Rich in touches of poetic feeling and with witty and humorous sayings."—Glasgow Herald.

BURNS'S PASSIONATE PILGRIMAGE.
(A few copies left of large paper edition, price 5s. net.)

"Well worth writing and is well written."—The Times.

SONNETS OF SWEET SORROW.

"They carry with them something heroic and tonic."—Glasgow Herald.

THE SANITY OF ART: An Exposure of the current nonsense about artists being degenerate. By G. Bernard Shaw.

"A scathing indictment of Max Nordau's 'Degeneration.' Mr. Shaw's book should prove wholesome reading for the section of cranks who, like Nordau, shower abuse upon everything that departs from conventional standards."—The Daily Mail.

"We confess that the perusal of so adroit an exercise in special pleading is thoroughly calculated to give pleasure to all admirers of ready wit and swift, felicitous phrasing ... packed with good argument, admirably employed and wielded."—The Daily Telegraph.

"Quite a remarkable feat of literary fencing.... The 'Exposure' itself is not only valuable as a compendium of Shawesque first principles in philosophy and ethics, but also as a workable survey of the Arts."—M.A.P.

THE ENDOWMENT OF MOTHERHOOD. By Dr. M. D. Eder.

In this book an analysis is made of the present social conditions from the medical side.

A consideration that it is desirable to encourage the production of healthy children, and to repress the breeding of unhealthy children, leads the author to the conclusion that only by making mothers free to select their partners and economically independent of these partners, is any advance possible.

He points out how inadequate is the help which is afforded to maternity and presents a plan for the State Endowment of Motherhood, which would, at the same time, not remove the children from their mother's care. He further gives a summary of all the measures already undertaken for the purpose of making maternity easier.

THE COTTAGE HOMES OF ENGLAND. By W. Walter Crotch. With an Introduction by G. K. Chesterton. Third Edition, revised and enlarged.

"A scathing and nearly heart-breaking disclosure and condemnation of the scandalous condition of the cottage property of rural districts. The Housing Acts graphically and caustically exposed."—The Manchester City News.

"A really useful book.... It deals with the housing problem in a plain, straightforward, practical fashion."—The Pall Mall Gazette.

"We welcome it as a contribution of value to an important question."—The Spectator.

THE DANCING FAUN: A Novel. By Florence Farr. Cheap Re-issue. With cover design by Aubrey Beardsley.

A PROFESSIONAL SOCIALIST: A Play in Five Acts. By Erica Cotterill.

"Well constructed and brightly written."—Scotsman.

"Merit resides in the clearness with which the characters are thrown, as it were, upon the screen.... They are familiar types. We admire the freedom as well as the skill with which the author has sketched the eccentricities of the comrades."—The Sheffield Independent.

"All the characters are finely drawn and are full of significance. The author is to be congratulated upon her insight, message, and dramatic instinct."—The Christian Commonwealth.

"The dialogue ... is bright and sparkling ... there is a great deal that is clever and amusing in the play."—The Glasgow Evening News.

"Miss Cotterill's play betrays the Shawian influence.... It is an entertaining play."—Justice.

WOMAN: Her Position To-day. By Constance Smedley, Author of "The Conflict," "The Daughters," &c. With an Appendix "WOMAN AND THE STATE," by Mrs. Philip Snowden.

"As a vindication of the women's enfranchisement demand, this popular, clever, lively book is worth reading."—The Christian Commonwealth.

"A sprightly little volume which puts forward many forceful and convincing arguments."—The Clarion.

"A notable contribution to the literature of the suffragette movement."—The Dundee Advertiser.

"That the author is Miss Smedley accounts for the liveliness or trenchancy of the writing.... Well worth listening to."—Glasgow Evening News.

THE COMMON-SENSE OF THE WOMAN QUESTION. By Millicent Murby.

One of the most sensible and best-written books on the Woman Question.

The book deals frankly with this problem as it appeals to both men and women. Particular attention is given to the specific functions of the two sexes, and the social part played by each, showing that the recognition of women's political responsibility is essential to race-progress.

Thanks angelique :thumbs:

For supernatural stories, kadath has compiled a master post here viewtopic.php?f=1&t=58271
You can choose a short story for the short ghost and horror story collection, or a book to read as solo.

We have also a few group projects underway, marked conveniently with [horror], or something like that :D
