Baring-Gould, S. (Sabine)
English fiction -- 19th century
Mr. Parker’s second book has received a warm welcome. The ‘Athenæum’
called it _a splendid study of character_; the ‘Pall Mall Gazette’
spoke of the writing as _but little behind anything that has been
done by any writer of our time_; the ‘St. James’s’ called it _a very
striking and admirable novel_; and the ‘Westminster Gazette’ applied
to it the epithet of _distinguished_.
=Parker.= PIERRE AND HIS PEOPLE. By GILBERT PARKER. _Crown 8vo. Buckram.

‘Stories happily conceived and finely executed. There is strength and
genius in Mr. Parker’s style.’—_Daily Telegraph._
=Parker.= THE TRANSLATION OF A SAVAGE. By GILBERT PARKER, Author of
‘Pierre and His People,’ ‘Mrs. Falchion,’ etc. _Crown 8vo. 5s._
‘The plot is original and one difficult to work out; but Mr. Parker has
done it with great skill and delicacy. The reader who is not
interested in this original, fresh, and well-told tale must be a
dull person indeed.’—_Daily Chronicle._
‘A strong and successful piece of workmanship. The portrait of
Lali, strong, dignified, and pure, is exceptionally well
drawn.’—_Manchester Guardian._
‘A very pretty and interesting story, and Mr. Parker tells it with much
skill. The story is one to be read.’—_St. James’s Gazette._
=Anthony Hope.= A CHANGE OF AIR: A Novel. By ANTHONY HOPE, Author of
‘The Prisoner of Zenda,’ etc. _Crown 8vo. 6s._
A bright story by Mr. Hope, who has, the _Athenæum_ says, ‘a decided
outlook and individuality of his own.’
‘A graceful, vivacious comedy, true to human nature. The characters
are traced with a masterly hand.’—_Times._
=Pryce.= TIME AND THE WOMAN. By RICHARD PRYCE, Author of ‘Miss Maxwell’s
Affections,’ ‘The Quiet Mrs. Fleming,’ etc. New and Cheaper Edition.
_Crown 8vo. 6s._
‘Mr. Pryce’s work recalls the style of Octave Feuillet, by its
clearness, conciseness, its literary reserve.’—_Athenæum._
=Marriott Watson.= DIOGENES OF LONDON and other Sketches. By H. B.
MARRIOTT WATSON, Author of ‘The Web of the Spider.’ _Crown 8vo.
Buckram. 6s._
‘By all those who delight in the uses of words, who rate the exercise
of prose above the exercise of verse, who rejoice in all proofs of
its delicacy and its strength, who believe that English prose is
chief among the moulds of thought, by these Mr. Marriott Watson’s
book will be welcomed.’—_National Observer._
=Gilchrist.= THE STONE DRAGON. By MURRAY GILCHRIST. _Crown 8vo. Buckram.
6s._
‘The author’s faults are atoned for by certain positive and admirable
merits. The romances have not their counterpart in modern
literature, and to read them is a unique experience.’—_National
Observer._
