=Publishers' Circular.=--"A very well told story. The characters
are all skilfully drawn. The action of the piece moves with
commendable quickness. A large amount of amusement and interest
will be obtained from its pages."
=Madame.=--"The book is eminently entertaining, and its truth to
nature is obvious."
=Bookman.=--"An eminently readable book. It contains a number of
delightful character sketches--some of them clearly portraits--of
present-day life in Bohemia. We thoroughly enjoyed the history of
their many adventures."
=Sheffield Telegraph.=--"Successfully reproduces a phase of life
which is always interesting, and we follow with pleasurable
sympathy the author's guidance through the mazes of Bohemia."
=Public Opinion.=--"The little circle of needy, happy-go-lucky,
literary, artistic, and dramatic Bohemians is an amusing one, and
we thank Mr. Fitz-Gerald for introducing us to it."
=Sunday Chronicle.=--"Full of unflagging interest from cover to
cover. Mr. Adair Fitz-Gerald possesses a chatty, ingratiating
style, and has the happy knack of putting himself at once on
friendly and confidential terms with the reader. 'Fame, the
Fiddler,' is rendered the more interesting by its
unconventionality."
=Glasgow Citizen.=--"Holds the reader's attention from start to
finish. Gives a thoroughly convincing picture of a most
interesting phase of artistic life."
=Bookseller.=--"A pleasant and attractive story. The various
scenes through which the reader is conducted are vividly and
skilfully delineated, and the _dramatis personæ_, varied and
diversified as they are, are rarely out of place, and each one of
them has the rare power of making the reader feel personally
interested. Mr. Fitz-Gerald may certainly be congratulated on a
complete success."
