Mes Amours, Poems Pa.s.sionate and Playful, By Selina Dolaro.
"This is one of those books that it is impossible adequately to describe. It is extremely lively and entertaining. The book is certainly bound to become popular, if only for its entire uniqueness."--_Baltimore American._
Selina Dolaro, a charming actress, receives a number of poems, some pa.s.sionate, some playful, and having enjoyed many a good laugh over them, gives some of them to the public with interpolated comments."--_The Argus._
"These verses are full of spirit and life, and the merry mood plays and sings between the lines like the contented streamlet between wind-swept hillsides."--_Albany Journal._
Ashes of The Future: The Suicide of Sylvester Gray
By Edward Heron-Allen.
"Is the work of a very vigorous and cultivated pen as well as of a deep thinking and fervid brain."--_Brooklyn Eagle._
Anti-Poverty and Progress
By Sister Frances M. Clare, the Nun of Kenmare.
"The good sister alternately deals effective blows against Mr.
George's impracticabilities and urges upon the rich, alike ecclesiastical as lay, the inauguration of true anti-poverty from the top of society.... The author evidently thinks religion more of a remedy for poverty than science."--_Brooklyn Eagle._
Forty Years on the Rail
By Charles B. George. Reminiscences of a Veteran Conductor.
The Politics of Labor
By Phillips Thompson.
"This book will mark an epoch in American thought. It is fully up with the times.... It is the prophet of the New Era."--_The People, R. I._
"One of the most valuable works drawn out by current discussions on social and economical questions, and one that is sure to take a high place in the permanent and standard literature of the times."--_Opinion, Rockland._
"This book is enlightening and inspiring; every thoughtful man and woman should read it."--_Tribune, Junction City._
"Mr. Thompson presents the whole question of land and labor reform as clearly as could be desired."--_Mail, Chicago._
Prince Coastwind's Victory, or the Fairy Bride of Croton Lake
By Mrs. Niles H. MacNamara. I Vol. ill.u.s.trated.
"This is a genuine American fairy tale, and, so far as we can remember, the first and only one that can lay claim to the t.i.tle."--_Daily Times, Troy, N. Y._
"It is fanciful and fresh, and written out delightfully."--_Philadelphia Press._
"The story is well told and cleverly ill.u.s.trated in strong and delicate pen and ink drawings."--_Brooklyn Eagle._
"A dainty little volume, describing the fate and fortunes of a Fairy Bride."--_Times-Democrat, New Orleans._
The Truth about Tristrem Varick
By Edgar Saltus, author of "Mr. Incouls Misadventure," "The Philosophy of Disenchantment," "Balzac"
In this novel Mr. Saltus has treated a subject hitherto unexplored in fiction. The scene is Fifth avenue, the plot a surprise. "There is," some one has said, "as much mud in the upper cla.s.ses as in the lower--only in the former it is gilded." This aphorism might serve as an epigraph to _Tristrem Varick._
It is the Law
A story of marriage and divorce in New York. By Thomas Edgar Willson.
"It is the Law" is a unique novel. That it contains a libel in every chapter is probably an exaggeration, but it certainly conveys that impression to the average reader. If the law on divorce and marriage of New York state is in the complex muddle that Mr.
Willson depicts it, then there are extenuating circ.u.mstances for Mr. Willson placing in our hands a novel which shows that a man may have, and does have, as many legal wives as his sense of propriety or pleasure desires. The same state of things also applies to women. It is indeed strong meat, dished up in a fearless, too plain manner.--_A Critic._
Man and Labor
A Series of short and simple studies, by Cyrus Elder.
"So excellent a manual of sound, economic philosophy ought to be widely circulated.... It is not a book written by a capitalist nor by a workingman. But it gives good advice to all cla.s.ses, and gives it in a most attractive manner."--_Philadelphia Evening Bulletin._
"Mr. Elder's book is a compound of sound argument, apt ill.u.s.tration, n.o.ble sentiment and vigorous language."--_Inter Ocean, Chicago._
A Boston Girl. At Boston, Bar Harbor and Paris, By Rev. Arthur Swaze.
"Those who read 'A Boston Girl' will like it and those who do not read it will, if they only knew it, miss spending an agreeable hour or two."--_San Francisco Call._
"Those who are pining for an original American Novel will be gratified upon reading this volume."--_Kansas City Times._
The Confessions of a Society Man
A novel of absorbing interest.
