THE NOVELS OF
F. MARION CRAWFORD


MR. ISAACS: A Tale of Modern India.

ATHENÆUM.— "A work of unusual ability.... It fully deserves the notice it is sure to attract."

DOCTOR CLAUDIUS: A True Story.

ATHENÆUM.— "Few recent books have been so difficult to lay down when once begun."

A ROMAN SINGER.

TIMES.— "A masterpiece of narrative. . . . Unlike any other romance in English literature."

ZOROASTER.

GUARDIAN.— "An instance of the highest and noblest form of novel. . . . Alike in the originality of its conception and the power with which it is wrought out, it stands on a level that is almost entirely its own."

MARZIO'S CRUCIFIX.

TIMES.— "A subtle compound of artistic feeling, avarice, malice, and criminal frenzy is this carver of silver chalices and crucifixes."

A TALE OF A LONELY PARISH.

GUARDIAN.— "The tale is written with all Mr. Crawford's skill."

PAUL PATOFF.

ST. JAMES'S GAZETTE.— "Those who neglect to read Paul Patoff will throw away a very pleasurable opportunity."

WITH THE IMMORTALS.

SPECTATOR.— "Cannot fail to please a reader who enjoys crisp, clear, vigorous working, and thoughts that are alike original and suggestive."

GREIFENSTEIN.

SPECTATOR.— "Altogether, we like Greifenstein decidedly—so much so as to doubt whether it does not dislodge A Roman Singer from the place hitherto occupied by the latter as our favourite amongst Mr. Crawford's novels."

TAQUISARA: A Novel.

PALL MALL GAZETTE.— "Cannot fail to be read with interest and pleasure by all to whom clever characterisation and delicate drawing make appeal."

A ROSE OF YESTERDAY.

SPEAKER.— "There is something in A Rose of Yesterday which makes the book linger with a distinct aroma of its own in the reader's memory."

SANT' ILARIO.

ATHENÆUM.— "The plot is skilfully concocted, and the interest is sustained to the end. . . . A very clever piece of work."

A CIGARETTE-MAKER'S ROMANCE.

GLOBE.— "We are inclined to think this is the best of Mr. Marion Crawford's stories."
