 NOVELS BY H. S. MERRIMAN

THE ISLE OF UNREST. Fifth impression. With Illustrations, Crown 8vo. 6s.

WORLD.—'A fine story, finely told, with local colour, character, and espirit subtly conveyed, and interest vital and sustained. For construction, this is Mr. Seton Merriman's best work.'

DAILY TELEGRAPH.—'Mr. Merriman has the happy gift of combining admirable and most attractive characterization with an exciting and romantic story. The present book is pleasurably readable from start to finish.'

RODEN'S CORNER. Third Edition. Crown 8vo.6d.

TRUTH.—'A novel I defy you to lay down once you have got well into it.'

PUNCH.—'For dramatic situation, intensity and simplicity of narrative, it is marvellous.... The plot is ingenious and new.'

IN KEDAR'S TENTS. Eighth Edition. Crown 8vo. 6d.

THE PALL MALL GAZETTE.—'After the few first pages one ceases to criticise, one can only enjoy. ... It is a story of intense excitement, yet the psychology and the characterization are admirable. In a word—the use of which, unqualified, is such a rare and delicious luxury—the book is good.'

THE SOWERS. Twenty-first Edition. Crown 8vo. 6d.

THE ATHENAEUM.—'The best and strongest romance which he has yet given to the public'

THE GRAPHIC.—'His absorbingly interesting story will be found very difficult indeed to lay down until its last page has been turned.'

WITH EDGED TOOLS. Fcp. 8vo. boards, Pictorial Cover, 2s.; or, limp red cloth, 2s. 6d.

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH.—"The book cannot be too highly praised.'

THE WESTMINSTER GAZETTE.—'Admirably conceived as a whole, and most skilful in its details. The story never flags or loiters.'

FROM ONE GENERATION TO ANOTHER. Fcp. 8vo. boards, Pictorial Cover, 2s.; or, limp red cloth, 2s. 6d.

THE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS.—'The book is a good book. The characters of Michael Seymour and of James Agar are admirably contrasted. ... There is a very fair allowance of wrong-doing in the novel; but, on the other hand—which is quite unusual in a story nowadays—things all come right at last.'

THE BOOKMAN.—'There is not a really dull page in the book.'

THE SLAVE OF THE LAMP. Fcp. 8vo. boards, Pictorial Cover, 2s.; or, limp red cloth, 2s. 6d.

THE MANCHESTER GUARDIAN.—'A masterly story ... so like real life, and so entirely unconventional.'

THE GUARDIAN.—'So cleverly has Mr. Henry Merriman fulfilled his task that we read through his two thrilling volumes without any feeling of incredulity.'

THE GREY LADY. Square 16mo. 4s.; or, with 12 Full-page Illustrations by Arthur Rackham, crown 8vo. 6s.

THE GLOBE.—'A story of striking merit throughout.'

THE BRITISH WEEKLY.—'An interesting, thoughtful, carefully-written story, with a charming touch of pensiveness.'
