England -- Social life and customs -- Fiction; Love stories
ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS.--"From the beginning Mr. Pemberton weaves his
romance with such skill that the tangled skein remains for long
unravelled ... marked by exceptional power, and holds the attention
firmly."
THE LODESTAR. 6s.
THE STANDARD.--"It impresses us as an exceedingly poignant and
effective story, true to real life. Written with cleverness and charm."
WHITE WALLS. 6s.
THE LADY.--"A wonderful subterranean city, deep in a salt mine, with
gorgeous boulevards, houses, shops, kiosks, and a great cathedral all
built of rock salt, and illumined by thousands of giant arc-lamps, is
the picturesque scene of Max Pemberton's latest romance, 'White Walls,'
a melodrama cleverly imagined, written in the author's happiest and
most spirited style, and well illustrated by Maurice Greiffenhagen."
ROBERT BARR
LORD STRANLEIGH, PHILANTHROPIST. 6s.
THE MANCHESTER COURIER.--"Mr. Barr's spirits never flag, his stories
have all point, and one may recommend the latest exploits of Lord
Stranleigh as being as amusing as ever."
JUSTUS MILES FORMAN
THE ISLAND OF ENCHANTMENT. 6s.
This new volume by the author of the "Garden of Lies" is the most
romantic that has yet come from Mr. Forman's pen and likely to be the
most popular.
THE UNKNOWN LADY. 6s.
MORNING POST.--"Mr. Forman has written a good many novels and none
better than his latest, 'The Unknown Lady.'"
OBSERVER.--"This is the best work its author has ever attempted or
achieved. There is charm in every line of it."
BIANCA'S DAUGHTER. 6s.
THE ATHENAEUM.--"Mr. Forman is one of the most distinctively romantic
writers of to-day. He has a fund of fine sympathy, and knowledge, and
his story is a story, and as usual interesting."
JOURNEYS END. 6s.
THE COURT JOURNAL.--"Surprisingly fresh, abounding in touches of
observation and sentiment, while the characters are drawn with
exceptional skill, the 'red-haired young woman' being a haunting
figure."
MONSIGNY. 6s.
THE DAILY TELEGRAPH.--"The novel is admirable, the idea is very
cleverly worked out, and is of an interesting character. The book is
worthy of much praise."
THE GARDEN OF LIES. 6s.
THE DAILY NEWS.--"This novel is far in advance of anything that Mr.
Forman has hitherto accomplished. 'The Garden of Lies' belongs to that

bright, crisp style."
THE QUEST. 6s.
WORLD.--"'The Quest' is every whit as good as its author's best known
story, 'The Garden of Lies,' and to say that of it is to give it the
highest recommendation, which, indeed, it deserves."
