Kitty Alone: A Story of Three Fires (vol. 2 of 3)
Baring-Gould, S. (Sabine)
English fiction -- 19th century
A cheaper edition of a book which won instant popularity. No
unfavourable review occurred, and most critics spoke in terms of
enthusiastic admiration. The ‘Westminster Gazette’ called it ‘_a
book of which we have read every word for the sheer pleasure of
reading, and which we put down with a pang that we cannot forget it
all and start again_.’ The ‘Daily Chronicle’ said that ‘_every one
who reads books at all must read this thrilling romance, from the
first page of which to the last the breathless reader is haled
along_.’ It also called the book ‘_an inspiration of manliness and
courage_.’ The ‘Globe’ called it ‘_a delightful tale of chivalry and
adventure, vivid and dramatic, with a wholesome modesty and
reverence for the highest_.’
