The author has gathered the threads of history and legend which have wound themselves around the three kingdoms of Sicily, Calabria, and Malta. Their history is of a long line of ill.u.s.trious deeds, full of stirring interest.
The ill.u.s.trations are of unusual beauty, and have been reproduced in both photogravure and half-tone.
VIA CRUCIS
A ROMANCE OF THE SECOND CRUSADE
"Throughout 'Via Crucis' the author shows not only the artist's selective power and a sense of proportion and comparative values, but the Christian's instinct for those things that it is well to think upon.... Blessed is the book that exalts, and 'Via Crucis' merits that beat.i.tude."--_New York Times._
IN THE PALACE OF THE KING
A LOVE STORY OF OLD MADRID
"Marion Crawford's latest story, 'In the Palace of the King,' is quite up to the level of his best works for cleverness, grace of style, and sustained interest. It is, besides, to some extent a historical story, the scene being the royal palace at Madrid, the author drawing the characters of Philip II. and Don John of Austria, with an attempt, in a broad impressionist way, at historic faithfulness. His reproduction of the life at the Spanish court is as brilliant and picturesque as any of his Italian scenes, and in minute study of detail is, in a real and valuable sense, true history."--_The Advance._
