"Mr. Allen has a style as original and almost as perfectly finished as Hawthorne's, and he has also Hawthorne's fondness for spiritual suggestion that makes all his stories rich in the qualities that are lacking in so many novels of the period.... If read in the right way, it cannot fail to add to one's spiritual possessions."--_San Francisco Chronicle._ THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 66 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK End of Project Gutenberg's The heritage of unrest, by Gwendolen Overton
