Anthony Hope’s Novels.
                  _Crown 8vo. 6s. each._

         THE GOD IN THE CAR. _Ninth Edition._
               ‘A very remarkable book, deserving of critical analysis
                impossible within our limit; brilliant, but not
                superficial; well considered, but not elaborated;
                constructed with the proverbial art that conceals, but
                yet allows itself to be enjoyed by readers to whom fine
                literary method is a keen pleasure.’—_The World._
         A CHANGE OF AIR. _Sixth Edition._
               ‘A graceful, vivacious comedy, true to human nature. The
                characters are traced with a masterly hand.’—_Times._
         A MAN OF MARK. _Fifth Edition._
               ‘Of all Mr. Hope’s books, “A Man of Mark” is the one which
                best compares with “The Prisoner of Zenda”’
                                             —_National Observer._

         THE CHRONICLES OF COUNT ANTONIO. _Fifth Edition._
               ‘It is a perfectly enchanting story of love and chivalry,
                and pure romance. The Count is the most constant,
                desperate, and modest and tender of lovers, a peerless
                gentleman, an intrepid fighter, a faithful friend, and
                a magnanimous foe.’—_Guardian._
         PHROSO. Illustrated by H. R. MILLAR. _Sixth Edition._
               ‘The tale is thoroughly fresh, quick with vitality, stirring
                the blood.’—_St. James’s Gazette._
         SIMON DALE. Illustrated. _Sixth Edition._
               ‘There is searching analysis of human nature, with a most
                ingeniously constructed plot. Mr. Hope has drawn the
                contrasts of his women with marvellous subtlety and
                delicacy.’—_Times._
         THE KING’S MIRROR. _Fourth Edition._
               ‘In elegance, delicacy, and tact it ranks with the best
                of his novels, while in the wide range of its
                portraiture and the subtilty of its analysis it
               surpasses all his earlier ventures.’—_Spectator._
         QUISANTE. _Fourth Edition._
               ‘The book is notable for a very high literary quality, and
                an impress of power and mastery on every page.’
                                                —_Daily Chronicle._
