Margarita's Soul: The Romantic Recollections of a Man of Fifty
Bacon, Josephine Daskam
Fiction
"Contains the hall-mark of genius itself. The plot is
masterly in conception, the descriptions are all vivid
flashes from a brilliant pen. It is impossible to read and
not marvel at the skilled workmanship and the constant
dramatic intensity of the incident, situations and
climax."--_The Boston Herald._
Derelicts
"Mr. Locke tells his story in a very true, a very moving, and
a very noble book. If any one can read the last chapter with
dry eyes we shall be surprised. 'Derelicts' is an impressive,
an important book. Yvonne is a creation that any artist might
be proud of."--_The Daily Chronicle._
Idols
"One of the very few distinguished novels of this present
book season."--_The Daily Mail._
"A brilliantly written and eminently readable book."--_The
London Daily Telegraph._
A Study in Shadows
"Mr. Locke has achieved a distinct success in this novel. He
has struck many emotional chords, and struck them all with a
firm, sure hand. In the relations between Katherine and Raine
he had a delicate problem to handle, and he has handled it
delicately."--_The Daily Chronicle._
The White Dove
"It is an interesting story. The characters are strongly
conceived and vividly presented, and the dramatic moments are
powerfully realized."--_The Morning Post._
The Demagogue and Lady Phayre
"Think of Locke's clever books. Then think of a book as
different from any of these as one can well imagine--that
will be Mr. Locke's new book."--_New York World._
At the Gate of Samaria
"William J. Locke's novels are nothing if not unusual. They
are marked by a quaint originality. The habitual novel reader
inevitably is grateful for a refreshing sense of escaping the
commonplace path of conclusion."--_Chicago Record-Herald._
DOLF WYLLARDE
_12mo. $1.50 each_
"Dolf Wyllarde sees life with clear eyes and puts down what
she sees with a fearless pen.... More than a little of the
flavor of Kipling in the good old days of Plain Tales from
the Hills."--_New York Globe._
Mafoota
A Romance of Jamaica
"The plot has a resemblance to that of Wilkie Collins' 'The
New Magdalen,' but the heroine is a Puritan of the strictest
type; the subject matter is like 'The
Helpmate.'"--_Springfield Republican._
As Ye Have Sown
"A brilliant story dealing with the world of fashion."
Captain Amyas
"Masterly."--_San Francisco Examiner._
"Startlingly plain-spoken."--_Louisville Courier-Journal._
The Rat Trap
"The literary sensation of the year."--_Philadelphia Item._
The Story of Eden
"Bold and outspoken, a startling book."--_Chicago
Record-Herald._
"A real feeling of brilliant sunshine and exhilarating
air."--_Spectator._
