_Daily Telegraph._—“Since the gay days when Mr. F. Anstey was
writing his inimitable series of humourous novels, we can recall
no book of purely farcical imagination, so full of excellent
entertainment as this first effort of Mr. F. J. Randall. ‘Love
and the Ironmonger’ is certain to be a success.”
_Times_—“As diverting a comedy of errors as the reader is
likely to meet with for a considerable time.”
Mr. Clement Shorter in _The Sphere_—“I thank the author for a
delightful hour’s amusement.”
=THE BERMONDSEY TWIN.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Pall Mall Gazette._—“Merry and bright farce. The incidents are
most deftly handled.”
_Westminster Gazette._—“There is a good deal of humour in some
of the situations.”
_Daily Telegraph._—“Mr. Randall has written a wonderfully
clever and thoroughly amusing humorous novel. The Bermondsey
Twin is a notable addition to the all-too-sparse ranks of novels
that are frankly designed to amuse.”

BY HUGH DE SÉLINCOURT.
=A BOY’S MARRIAGE.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Evening Standard_—“Exceedingly realistic . . . but does not
give the impression that anything is expatiated upon for the
sake of effect. A daring but sincere and simple book . . .
likely to attract a good deal of attention.”
_Athenœum_—“The best points in Mr. de Sélincourt’s novel are
his delicacy of treatment and sense of character. . . . He has
the making of a fine novelist.”
=THE STRONGEST PLUME.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Academy_—“An uncomfortable story for the conventionally
minded. It deals a deadly blow to the ordinary accepted notions
of the respectable.”
_Daily Telegraph_—“The story is a very commendable as well as a
very interesting piece of work.”
_Daily Mail_—“A neat, artistic story.”
=THE HIGH ADVENTURE.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Evening Standard._—“A novel for all lovers of the poetry of
life, uttered or unexpressed.”
_Morning Post_—“Mr. de Sélincourt certainly has a talent for
describing rather nice young men.”
_Observer._—“A clever and refreshing story.”
=THE WAY THINGS HAPPEN.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Morning Post._—“The book has moments of grace and charm that
few contemporary writers give us.”
_Pall Mall Gazette._—“‘The Way Things Happen’ confirms a
long-settled conviction that among the young generation of
writers there are few who can compete with Mr. de Sélincourt for
pride of place.”
_Times._—“Reading this book is a surprising and a rare
experience.”
=A FAIR HOUSE.= Crown 8vo. 6/-
_Athenœum._—“The book is tender and pathetic, and occasionally
exhibits considerable literary skill.”
