An amusing skit on modern books of travel.
A volume of thoughtful, personal essays, by a new writer of very considerable promise.
"It is impossible to deny the force of much which she avers. She throbs with indignation, and her book raises many thoughts, unusual to mankind (in the narrow sense), but none the less salutary. Possibly all will be remedied if women get the vote; certainly the case could not more effectively be put. The beauty of the language and the intense conviction which lies behind the polemic cannot be gainsaid. In many respects Mrs. Paget contrives to say fresh things on old subjects, and certain very awkward subjects are most delicately handled."--_Liverpool Post._
A treatise on the new variation of bridge as now generally played.
"To any lover of bridge the new game will prove most fascinating, and intending players cannot do better than study Mr. Vane Pennell's book."--_Western Mail._
Mr. Viereck is a poet who will have to be reckoned with seriously. The son of a German father and an American mother, he has "listened to the music of two worlds." This volume is his introduction to English readers.
"He is one of the forces to be counted with in contemporary literature.... Mr. Louis Zangwill is bound to travel far."--_Weekly Sun._
"A powerful tale of modern society."--_Spectator._
"The plot is excellent and it is handled with delicacy."--_Daily News._
"Cannot but add to his already considerable reputation."--_Daily Mail._
"A remarkable achievement for a first book."--_Daily Graphic._
"A very droll mixture of Fleet Street, Bohemia, and life on board a man-of-war."--_Country Life._
Two stories of the occult world that have met with considerable success.
"There is no story of the West like it. There are no dull patches in it."--_Boston Globe._
A new novel by the author of that very successful book, "A DAUGHTER OF THOR."
"She writes admirably, and in 'Eve and the Wood God' she has given us a book that can be read with pleasure--a remark that is not always applicable to novels of present-day life."--_Black and White._
