"They should be the most delightful of comrades, for their
writing is so apt, so responsive, so joyous, so saturated with
the promptings and the glamour of spring. It is because _If
Youth But Knew_ has all these adorable qualities that it is so
fascinating."--_Cleveland Leader._

=The Way of the Gods=
"There can be no doubt as to the artistic quality of his story.
It rings true with the golden ring of chivalry and of woman's
love, it rings true for all lovers of romance, wherever they
be, ... and is told with an art worthy of the idea."--_New York
Mail._
=Heimweh and Other Stories=
"As in _Madam Butterfly_ his subtle appreciation of love's
tender mystery creates an exquisite thrill of 'the heavenly
longing--for the love--the loved ones' the one thing that
through poverty and age can keep the door open to joy."--_New
York Times._

=The Making of Christopher Ferringham=
"In brilliancy, exciting interest, and verisimilitude, _The
Making of Christopher Ferringham_ is one of the best of the
semi-historical novels of the day, and not unworthy of
comparison with Maurice Hewlett's best."--_Boston Advertiser._
=The Life, Treason, and Death of James Blount of Breckenhow=
"A novel that may fairly challenge comparison with the very
best, telling the story of treason and a love, of many good
fights, a few mistakes, and a good death at the last."--_The
Boston Transcript._
=The Fair Maid of Greystones=
"The plot of _The Fair Maid of Greystones_ is not unworthy of
Weyman at his best. This is strong praise, but it is deserved.
From the moment Jack Hetherington, the Cavalier volunteer,
assumes the identity of his blackguard cousin, and thus escapes
certain death to face the responsibility for his kinsman's dark
deeds, until the end, which is sanely happy, the adventure
never flags. This is one of the few historical novels in whose
favor an exception may well be made by those who long since
lost interest in the school."--_New York Mail._
