"The book is an interesting addition to antiquarian and popular literature."--_The Scotsman._ "A highly interesting work....

BY ELLER, Author of "Ingatherings." _Crown 8vo. Bound in cloth extra, 3s. 6d._ "This anonymously-written story is of much power, and presents to us a picture of the Government in Wuertemburg a hundred and sixty years ago, when the reigning Duke Alexandra, in his indulgence and foolishly fond treatment of his Cabinet Minister and Finance Director, the Jew Siece, has placed his subjects at the mercy of a crafty and designing man. How his object to overthrow the hero of the story, Gustave Lanbek, and his father, by forcing him to take an office which would bring him the contempt of his friends and the hatred of the people, was ultimately frustrated by the encompassing of his own ruin, is a plot which is developed and completed in a most dramatic manner. There is, too, a thread of love-making, the course of which runs by no means smoothly, deftly introduced into the main theme of the story, which lightens and relieves the plot. The book is one which we have thoroughly enjoyed, and both author and publishers are to be complimented upon the production of a volume effectively written and attractively printed and bound."--_Norfolk Chronicle._ "The book has the great merit of soon interesting the reader. The get-up of the book reflects credit upon the publishers."--_Daily Mail._
