=WHERE LOVE IS.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
Mr. James Douglas, in _Star_—“I do not often praise a book with

=SIMON THE JESTER.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Daily Telegraph._—“. . . something of the precision of the
pendant, combined with an easy garrulity which is absolutely
charming, and a literary style which carries us from the
beginning to the end with unfailing verve and ease . . .
Certainly you will not put down the book until you have read the
last page . . . The style, the quality of the writing, the
atmosphere of the novel, the easy, pervasive charm . . . make us
feel once more the stirring pulses and eager blood of deathless
romance.”
