Byzantine Empire -- History -- John V Palaeologus, 1341-1391 -- Fiction; Zeno, Carlo, 1334-1418 -- Fiction
"The whole book is delicious, with its wise and kindly humor,
its just perspective of the true values of things, its clever
pen pictures of people and customs, and its healthy optimism
for the great world in general."--_Philadelphia Evening
Telegraph._
=The Woman Errant=
"The book is worth reading. It will cause discussion. It is an
interesting, fictional presentation of an important modern
question, treated with fascinating feminine adroitness."--Miss
JEANNETTE GILDER in _The Chicago Tribune_.
=At the Sign of the Fox=
"Her little pictures of country life are fragrant with a
genuine love of nature, and there is fun as genuine in her
notes on rural character. A travelling pieman is one of her
most lovable personages; another is Tatters, a dog, who is
humanly winsome and wise, and will not soon be forgotten by the
reader of this very entertaining book."--_New York Tribune._
=The Garden, You and I=
"This volume is simply the best she has yet put forth, and
quite too deliciously torturing to the reviewer, whose only
garden is in Spain.... The delightful humor which persuaded the
earlier books, and without which Barbara would not be Barbara,
has lost nothing of its poignancy, and would make _The Garden,
You and I_ pleasant reading even to the man who doesn't know a
pink from a phlox or a _Daphne cneorum_ from a Cherokee
rose."--_Congregationalist._

=Calumet "K"= Illustrated by Harry C. Edwards
"_Calumet 'K'_ is a novel that is exciting and absorbing, but

The book is an unusually good story; one that shows the inner
workings of the labor union, and portrays men who are the bone
and sinew of the earth."--_The Toledo Blade._

railroading."--_Outlook._
