Mr. WINSTON CHURCHILL'S NOVELS
_Each, cloth, gilt tops and titles, $1.50_
=Mr. Crewe's Career= Illustrated
"Another chapter in his broad, epical delineation of the American spirit.... It is an honest and fair story.... It is very interesting; and the heroine is a type of woman as fresh, original, and captivating as any that has appeared in American novels for a long time past."--_The Outlook_, New York.
"Shows Mr. Churchill at his best. The flavor of his humor is of that stimulating kind which asserts itself just the moment, as it were, after it has passed the palate.... As for Victoria, she has that quality of vivid freshness, tenderness, and independence which makes so many modern American heroines delightful."--_The Times_, London.
=The Celebrity= An Episode
"No such piece of inimitable comedy in a literary way has appeared for years.... It is the purest, keenest fun."--_Chicago Inter-Ocean._
=Richard Carvel= Illustrated
"... In breadth of canvas, massing of dramatic effect, depth of feeling, and rare wholesomeness of spirit, it has seldom, if ever, been surpassed by an American romance."--_Chicago Tribune._
=The Crossing= Illustrated
"'The Crossing' is a thoroughly interesting book, packed with exciting adventure and sentimental incident, yet faithful to historical fact both in detail and in spirit."--_The Dial._
=The Crisis= Illustrated
"It is a charming love story, and never loses its interest.... The intense political bitterness, the intense patriotism of both parties, are shown understandingly."--_Evening Telegraph_, Philadelphia.
=Coniston= Illustrated
"'Coniston' has a lighter, gayer spirit and a deeper, tenderer touch than Mr. Churchill has ever achieved before.... It is one of the truest and finest transcripts of modern American life thus far achieved in our fiction."--_Chicago Record-Herald._
