A TALE OF A LONELY PARISH
"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."--_The Critic._
MARZIO'S CRUCIFIX
"We take the liberty of saying that this work belongs to the highest department of character-painting in words."--_The Churchman._
PAUL PATOFF
"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._
PIETRO GHISLERI
"The strength of the story lies not only in the artistic and highly dramatic working out of the plot, but also in the penetrating a.n.a.lysis and understanding of the impulsive and pa.s.sionate Italian character."--_Public Opinion._
THE CHILDREN OF THE KING
"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."--_Public Opinion._
MARION DARCHE
"We are disposed to rank 'Marion Darche' as the best of Mr. Crawford's American stories."--_The Literary World._
KATHERINE LAUDERDALE
"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 RALSTONS
"The whole group of character studies is strong and vivid."--_The Literary World._
LOVE IN IDLENESS
"The story is told in the author's lightest vein; it is bright and entertaining."--_The Literary World._
CASA BRACCIO
"We are grateful when Mr. Crawford keeps to his Italy. The poetry and enchantment of the land are all his own, and 'Casa Braccio' gives promise of being his masterpiece.... He has the life, the beauty, the heart, and the soul of Italy at the tips of his fingers."--_Los Angeles Express._
TAQUISARA
"A charming story this is, and one which will certainly be liked by all admirers of Mr. Crawford's work."--_New York Herald._
ADAM JOHNSTONE'S SON and A ROSE OF YESTERDAY
"It is not only one of the most enjoyable novels that Mr. Crawford has ever written, but is a novel that will make people think."--_Boston Beacon._
"Don't miss reading Marion Crawford's new novel, 'A Rose of Yesterday.'
It is brief, but beautiful and strong. It is as charming a piece of pure idealism as ever came from Mr. Crawford's pen."--_Chicago Tribune._
SARACINESCA
"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.... The story is exquisitely told, and is the author's highest achievement, as yet, in the realm of fiction."--_The Boston Traveler._
SANT' ILARIO
A SEQUEL TO SARACINESCA
"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 a.n.a.lysis, and absorbing in interest."--_The New York Tribune._
DON ORSINO
A SEQUEL TO SARACINESCA AND SANT' ILARIO
"Offers exceptional enjoyment in many ways, in the fascinating absorption of good fiction, in the interest of faithful historic accuracy, and in charm of style. The 'New Italy' is strikingly revealed in 'Don Orsino.'"--_Boston Budget._
WITH THE IMMORTALS
"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 a.s.similative knowledge both literary and scientific, and no less by his courage, and so 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."--_The Boston Advertiser._
GREIFENSTEIN
"... Another notable contribution to the literature of the day. 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._
A CIGARETTE-MAKER'S ROMANCE and KHALED
"It is a touching romance, filled with scenes of great dramatic power."--_Boston Commercial Bulletin._
"It abounds in stirring incidents and barbaric picturesqueness; and the love struggle of the unloved Khaled is manly in its simplicity and n.o.ble in its ending."--_The Mail and Express._
