"Thousands and tens of thousands of copies of it 'go.' There is little
doubt that this is another successful book of this sort."--_Mail and
Express_, New York.
"A romance of love and war, with two delightful heroines who are
certain to hold feminine interest."--_Philadelphia Press._
"The author's soldiers are real, his girls real women."--_Boston
Journal._
"A perfect gem of a volume--one of the daintiest and prettiest that
ever came to the _World's_ table."--_New York World._
"It is written in a dashing style that cannot fail to hold the
interest, and shows up the character and bravery of General Nathanael
Greene."--_The Churchman_, Detroit.
"The publishers have spared no expense to make this volume one of the
daintiest novels."--_Baltimore Sun._
"The action of the story is spirited, the love interest is strong, and
bits of revolutionary history are cleverly set into the
background."--_Boston Herald._
"There is no striving after choice expression or artificial scenes,
but just the happy-go-lucky vivacity of the irrepressible raconteur,
and the coquettish Sarah is delightful. A cheerful bellicose
book."--_Brooklyn Eagle._
"So pretty a specimen of book-making, illustrating the possibilities
of decorative art as applied to typography, as 'When Blades Are Out
and Love's Afield,' seldom comes in the way of a reviewer."--_Nashville
American._
"This new novel should outstrip all Mr. Brady's preceding works in
popularity, for, while retaining the strength and virility of his
earlier books, it much surpasses them in heart interest and
charm."--_Argonaut_, San Francisco.
"A dainty love story. The book well repays the reading."--_The
Outlook._
"The book revels in love, war, adventure, so what more can be
asked?"--_Detroit Journal._
"There is just enough of war in the book to carry the spirit of the
times--there is just enough of the photography of the American
sentiment of those days to make the blood of to-day leap at the
injustice of yesterday. There is just enough of love to make the heart
go out to those who suffered in consequence of the duel of cross
purposes which runs throughout the story."--_New York Press._
