WORMWOOD. _Thirteenth Edition._
BARABBAS: A DREAM OF THE WORLD’S TRAGEDY. _Thirty-Ninth Edition._ ‘The tender reverence of the treatment and the imaginative beauty of the writing have reconciled us to the daring of the conception. This “Dream of the World’s Tragedy” is a lofty and not inadequate paraphrase of the supreme climax of the inspired narrative.’――_Dublin Review._
THE SORROWS OF SATAN. _Forty-Eighth Edition._ ‘A very powerful piece of work…. The conception is magnificent, and is likely to win an abiding place within the memory of man…. The author has immense command of language, and a limitless audacity…. This interesting and remarkable romance will live long after much of the ephemeral literature of the day is forgotten…. A literary phenomenon … novel, and even sublime.’――W. T. STEAD in the _Review of Reviews_.
THE MASTER CHRISTIAN. [_165th Thousand._ ‘It cannot be denied that “The Master Christian” is a powerful book; that it is one likely to raise uncomfortable questions in all but the most self-satisfied readers, and that it strikes at the root of the failure of the Churches――the decay of faith――in a manner which shows the inevitable disaster heaping up…. The good Cardinal Bonpré is a beautiful figure, fit to stand beside the good Bishop in “Les Misérables.” It is a book with a serious purpose expressed with absolute unconventionality and passion…. And this is to say it is a book worth reading.’――_Examiner._
TEMPORAL POWER: A STUDY IN SUPREMACY. [_150th Thousand._ ‘It is impossible to read such a work as “Temporal Power” without becoming convinced that the story is intended to convey certain criticisms on the ways of the world and certain suggestions for the betterment of humanity…. If the chief intention of the book was to hold the mirror up to shams, injustice, dishonesty, cruelty, and neglect of conscience, nothing but praise can be given to that intention.’――_Morning Post._

Anthony Hope’s Novels. _Crown 8vo. 6s. each._
THE GOD IN THE CAR. _Ninth Edition._ ‘A very remarkable book, deserving of critical analysis impossible within our limit; brilliant, but not superficial; well considered, but not elaborated; constructed with the proverbial art that conceals, but yet allows itself to be enjoyed by readers to whom fine literary method is a keen pleasure.’――_The World._

Arthur Morrison’s Novels _Crown 8vo. 6s. each._
TALES OF MEAN STREETS. _Sixth Edition._ ‘A great book. The author’s method is amazingly effective, and produces a thrilling sense of reality. The writer lays upon us a master hand.

SONS OF THE MORNING. _Second Edition._ ‘A book of strange power and fascination.’――_Morning Post._
THE STRIKING HOURS. _Second Edition._ ‘Tragedy and comedy, pathos and humour, are blended to a nicety in this volume.’――_World._ ‘The whole book is redolent of a fresher and ampler air than breathes in the circumscribed life of great towns.’――_Spectator._
FANCY FREE. Illustrated. _Second Edition._ ‘Of variety and racy humour there is plenty.’――_Daily Graphic._
THE RIVER. _Third Edition._ ‘“The River” places Mr. Phillpotts in the front rank of living novelists.’――_Punch._ ‘Since “Lorna Doone” we have had nothing so picturesque as this new romance.’ ――_Birmingham Gazette._ ‘Mr. Phillpotts’s new book is a masterpiece which brings him indisputably into the front rank of English novelists.’――_Pall Mall Gazette._ ‘This great romance of the River Dart.
