The _Birmingham Post_ says:--"A story well worth reading. It is in reality a thrilling and exciting adventure, which the reader, once he has taken up, will be indisposed to lay aside unfinished."
The _Dundee Courier_ says:--"To say that the clever author of ’When I was Czar’ has eclipsed that stirring romance is to bring one within the sphere of the incredible. But it is true. The present novel is full to overflowing of boundless resource and enterprise, which cannot but rouse even the most blasé of readers."
The _Daily Mail_ says:--"The story is undoubtedly clever. Mr. Marchmont contrives to invest his most improbable episodes with an air of plausibility, and the net result is an exciting and entertaining tale."
The _Birmingham Post_ says:--"Mr. Marchmont creates numerous thrilling situations which are worked out with dramatic power, his description of the interior of a Turkish prison, with all its horrors, being a realistic piece of work."
The _Morning Post_ says:--"The book contains plenty of adventure and excitement, and gives a further illustration of the author’s dauntless imagination."
The _Times_:--"Mr. Marchmont’s tales always have plenty of go. He is well up to his standard in this busy and exciting narrative."
The _Globe_:--"Mr. A. W. Marchmont can always write an exciting story bristling with adventures and hazard, and incidents of all sorts. ’In the Cause of Freedom’ furnishes a good example of his talent. Vivid, packed with drama, with action that never flags, this novel ought to appeal successfully to all lovers of romantic and spirited fiction."
_Aberdeen Free Press_:--"This is another of Mr. Marchmont’s clever stories of adventure in Russia and is further proof of his ability to weave a complicated plot in which thrilling situations are worked out with dramatic power. The Author has succeeded in upholding his reputation--not an easy task when his former achievements are considered."
The _People’s Saturday Journal_:--"It is an admirable example of the type of exciting fiction for which Mr. Marchmont is justly famous, and lacks nothing in the way of plot and incident."
The _Daily News_ says:--"Written in a vigorous manner, adventures throng the pages, and the interest is maintained throughout."
