The happy day is set for June, dear reader, and I am invited to the
double wedding.
(THE END.)
A. CONAN DOYLE.
It were superfluous to say more in regard to the achievements of this
great story writer than to allude to the perfect clamor of critical
congratulation which greets every new production of his pen. The six
stories which the publishers have just put forth in the most approved
style, with an elegant illustration on the cover of each, are perhaps
the most powerful of his popular works.
_The White Company._
"This is a romance of the days of chivalry in Merrie England. For vivid
description, trenchant wit and historical glamour we have read nothing
to equal it since Ivanhoe."
_The Firm of Girdlestone._
"A startlingly realistic novel of the world of business in the
metropolis of the universe, London. It is a fascinating book."
_Micah Clarke._
"In this volume, A. Conan Doyle transports us to quite a different
period of England's history. The tale is placed in the time of the
Cavaliers and Roundheads. The author is equally at home here as he was
in the delightful story of The White Company."
_Beyond the City._
"A simple recital of tragedy and mystery in English family life. Quite
unlike the author's average story of warlike deeds and brave hearts,
Beyond the City nevertheless possesses the true magnetism which obliges
complete perusal once the opening chapter is read."
_A Study in Scarlet._
"In this weird book the reader first meets that most fascinating and
incomprehensible character, Sherlock Holmes, the detective. One had
heard of him so much before, it is like renewing an old and loved
acquaintance."
_At the Sign of the Four._
"Here we behold again the wonderful deductive work of Sherlock Holmes
in the tracing of crimes and criminals. Beyond question, he is the
greatest detective creation of any time or language. The story is
simply irresistible."
All the above works are bound uniform and printed on heavy white paper.

Well worth reading.

_Bookseller, Stationer, and Newsdealer_: "A Daughter of Maryland" is
