_New and revised edition, $1.25. Leather, $1.60_
"Mr. Masefield comes like a flash of light across contemporary English
poetry. The improbable has been accomplished; he has made poetry out of
the very material that has refused to yield it for almost a score of
years."--_Boston Evening Transcript._
"Originality, force, distinction, and deep knowledge of the human
heart."--_Chicago Record-Herald._
"They are truly great pieces."--_Kentucky Post._
"A vigor and sincerity rare in modern English literature."--_The
Independent._
"John Masefield is the man of the hour, and the man of to-morrow too, in
poetry and in the playwriting craft."--JOHN GALSWORTHY.
"--recreates a wholly new drama of existence."--WILLIAM STANLEY
BRAITHWAITE, _N.Y. Times_.
The Daffodil Fields
_Cloth, 12mo, $1.25. Leather, $1.60_
"Neither in the design nor in the telling did or could 'Enoch Arden'
come near the artistic truth of 'The Daffodil Fields.'"--_Sir
Quiller-Couch_, _Cambridge University_.
A Mainsail Haul
_Cloth, 12mo, $1.25. Leather, $1.60_
As a sailor before the mast Masefield has traveled the world over. Many
of the tales in this volume are his own experiences written with the
same dramatic fidelity displayed in "Dauber."
The Tragedy of Pompey
_Cloth, 12mo, $1.25. Leather, $1.60_
A play such as only the author of "Nan" could have written. Tense in
situation and impressive in its poetry it conveys Masefield's genius in
the handling of the dramatic form.
