The Uncrowned King Part 5

"It is the greatest story since Bunyan's 'Pilgrim's Progress.'"--_Grand Rapids Herald_.

THE WINNING OF BARBARA WORTH

"It is a novel with 'body,' with a large and timely idea back of it, with sound principles under it, and with a good crescendo of dramatic thrills."--_Chicago Record-Herald_.

"To the reader the characters will appear as real as friends they know--all of their aims, and likes, and hatreds being portrayed as true to life as snapshots caught by moving-picture cameras."--_Boston Globe_.

"The characters take the reader with them wherever they go, and they are characters that seem to have temporarily stepped from real life into the pages of the book."--_Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph_.

"The romance of the novel is told in a very charming love story which has 'Barbara Worth' for its inspiration. With her winning the author has deftly interwoven an epic of national reclamation work and present-day good business."--_Richmond Times-Dispatch_.

"With a vividness that a.s.sumes reality Mr. Wright shows how capital may be used to gain its end and at the same time save the community and still be 'good business'."--_Omaha Bee_.

"'The Calling of Dan Matthews' was a fine tale; 'The Shepherd of the Hills' was an inspiration. And now he sends us 'The Winning of Barbara Worth'--the best thing he has done so far * * * a twentieth century epic."--_Cleveland Plain Dealer_.

THEIR YESTERDAYS

"It is a book embodying high ideals for men and women, and one that will stimulate young men and women toward pure and n.o.ble love."--_Baltimore Sun_.

"'Their Yesterdays,' by Harold Bell Wright, is a really great book. You feel better, you feel refreshed, and you feel a desire to drop to your knees and thank Almighty G.o.d for such a book and for permitting you to read it."--_Memphis News Scimitar_.

"This is the gentle story of the love of a man and a woman in which the vigor of 'That Printer of Udell's,' the kindliness of 'The Shepherd of the Hills,' the power of 'Dan Matthews' and the grace of 'Barbara Worth'

are all woven into a strain more delicate and more beautiful than this great writer has ever before penned. Through this medium has Mr. Wright told more plainly than before the inmost secrets and joys of his big heart."--_Boston Globe_.

"Some one has called Harold Bell Wright 'the apostle of the wholesome'

in fiction, and his latest volume, 'Their Yesterdays,' certainly bears out his claim to the t.i.tle. Also it shows the man's remarkable genius.

We may liken the perusal of the book to listening to some magnificent organ played soft and low by a master hand. And, as one never wearies of gazing upon great paintings nor of listening to the uplifting strains of fine music so one reads this volume with deep appreciation and pays the tribute of regret when it is ended."--_Nashville Tennessean_.

THE EYES OF THE WORLD

"Tense situations, clear-cut, strong characters, the struggle of right over advancement, and cleanliness against wealth are all pictured in 'The Eyes of the World' with all the vigor for which the author has become known."--_Spokane Chronicle_.

"Harold Bell Wright has always stood for clean, pure, wholesome fiction, and helped the cause by that quality in his books, but in 'The Eyes of the World' he has made the most profound appeal of all, and who can foretell the far-reaching influence of such a book!"--_Raleigh Times_.

"When the author produced 'The Winning of Barbara Worth,' the reading public believed he had written his masterpiece of fiction but this literary genius, the wizard of American novelists, has surprised the literators in 'The Eyes of the World.' * * * the most intense and dramatic novel of today."--_Grand Rapids Herald_.

"The Eyes of the World' is an unusual novel. It is that rare event, a pure love story. It deals sledgehammer blows at animalism and sensualism, and is as a strong white light on a rock illumining the dark valley below."--_Portland Oregonian_.

"It is a protest of a prophet against modern society and a strong story of the triumph of high ideals."--_Baptist Standard_.

"Harold Bell Wright has told his story in a way to honor purity and loveliness and to depict in their real colors their opposites."--_Worcester Gazette_.

"The description is poetic and rich in literary merit, while the story is full of action and purpose."--_Sacramento Bee_.

WHEN A MAN'S A MAN

Ill.u.s.trations and Decorations by the Author

When a Man's a Man is a fine, big, wholesome novel of simple sweetness and virile strength. While the pages are crowded with the thrilling incidents that belong to the adventurous life of the unfenced land depicted--Northern Arizona--one feels, always, beneath the surface of the stirring scenes the great, primitive and enduring life forces that the men and women of this story portray. In the Dean, Philip Acton, Patches, Little Billy, Curly Elson, Kitty Reid and Helen Manning the author has created real living, breathing men and women, and we are made to feel and understand that there come to everyone those times when in spite of all, above all and at any cost, a man _must_ be a man.
