SONGS OF ACTION.
By A. CONAN DOYLE.


The DAILY TELEGRAPH.—'There is spirit and animation, the rush and glow of young blood about his poems—always a pulsating sense of life.'

The DAILY CHRONICLE.—'Almost without exception "rattling good verses." They ought to be a godsend to the reciter, who, we trust, will appreciate them.'

The GLOBE.—'Dr. Doyle's "Songs" are songs of movement. They have fluency, they have vigour, they have force. Everybody should hasten to make acquaintance with them.'

WESTMINSTER GAZETTE.—'Dr. Conan Doyle's songs are happily named. They are full of movement, and are for the most part moving. Especially full-blooded and buoyant are the hunting songs.'

The YORKSHIRE POST.—'Dr. Conan Doyle writes a good song and a good ballad. He has the requisite amount of pathos, and his humour is spontaneous.'

PUNCH.—'Dr. Conan Doyle has well named his verse "Songs of Action." It pulsates with life and movement, whether the scenes be laid on sea or land, on ship or horseback.'

The ACADEMY.—'Dr. Conan Doyle sings of brave things like a brave man. . . . Here and there he reaches a high level.'

LITERATURE.—'That Dr. Conan Doyle could write good, stirring verse he showed long ago. . . . The volume shows his versatility, and will give real pleasure to all who still possess healthy emotions to be moved by swinging metres and themes to suit.'
