“Miss Sinclair’s genius consists in being able to combine great art with a popular story-telling gift. All her detail, the many little miracles of observation and understanding, are not dead nor catalogued, but are merged into the living body of her continuously interesting narrative.”—New York Globe. “Genius illumines every page of one of the most impressive works of fiction of today. It is a novel of extraordinary power and worth ranking assuredly among the novels of our time which will make a lasting mark on literature and upon human thought and life.”—New York Tribune. “Miss Sinclair has written nothing that so perfectly represents the chaotic spirit of England during the past twenty years. The story contains much of matters that have nothing to do with the war and in all of them she has portrayed the English character to the life.”—Boston Transcript. “The Book of the day is ‘The Tree of Heaven.’ It is a war novel—a gripping one. The story does not take us out of England except in a few letters written from the battlefields towards the close of the book, but it shows powerfully the effect of war on England, as represented by a typical group of people, a most loveable family, and their varied connections and friends.”—Philadelphia Telegraph. “Stands out at once, and emphatically, from the common run of books because it is a work of art.... A work of sheer artistry, well worth the doing, and done at the full strength and compass of skilled workmanship, it ranks fairly among the best work of its kind in modern fiction; among the very best.”—New York Sun. ------------------ THE MACMILLAN COMPANY Publishers 64-66 Fifth Avenue New York ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Martial Adventures of Henry and Me BY WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE Author of “A Certain Rich Man,” etc. Cloth 12mo. What happened to these two when the work of the Red Cross took them from their quiet newspaper offices in Kansas, and suddenly plunged them into the turmoil of the war makes a fascinating narrative. There is an irresistible humor in the adventures of the two fat, bald middle aged, inland Americans, as they go through war-ridden Europe, watching the romance of the “Eager Soul” and the “Gilded Youth” and the “Young Doctor.” And there is much keenness and sympathy in the description of the cities they visit and the people they talk to. ------------------ THE MACMILLAN COMPANY Publishers 64-66 Fifth Avenue New York ------------------------------------------------------------------------
