THE WORKS OF RICHARD LE GALLIENNE


ENGLISH POEMS. Fourth Edition, Revised. Purple Cloth. 12mo. Price $1.50.

"There is plenty of accomplishment, there is abundance of tuneful notes, sentiment often very pleasing, delicacy, grace. The best thing in the book to one's own taste is the last half of 'Sunset in the City.' 'Paolo and Francesca' is very clever."—Mr. Andrew Lang in the New Review.

ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON: An Elegy. And other Poems, mainly Personal. With Etched Frontispiece by D. Y. Cameron, 12mo. Price $1.50.

"Few, indeed, could be more fit to sing the dirge of that 'Virgil of prose' than the poet whose curiosa felicitas is so close akin to Stevenson's own charm."—Daily Chronicle.

GEORGE MEREDITH: Some Characteristics. With a Bibliography (much enlarged) by John Lane. Portrait, etc. Fifth edition. Purple Cloth, 12mo. $2.00.

"All Meredithians must possess George Meredith: Some Characteristics, by Richard Le Gallienne. This book is a complete and excellent guide to the novelist and the novels, a sort of Meredithian Bradshaw, with pictures of the traffic superintendent and the head office at Boxhill. Even Philistines may be won over by the blandishments of Mr. Le Gallienne."—Punch.

RUDYARD KIPLING: A Criticism. By Richard Le Gallienne. With a bibliography by John Lane. 12mo. $1.25.

THE QUEST OF THE GOLDEN GIRL. Twelfth Edition. 12mo. $1.50.

"Glow of colour is his, feeling for landscape, magic of style, whimsical fancy: a delightful excuse for digressions upon men and things. Who, with this song of the Spring in his ears, could not 'follow in the wake of the magical music'? In this wise, with wit, wisdom, and mirth, the pilgrim returns to the city."—The London Daily Telegraph.

YOUNG LIVES: A Romance. Second Edition. 12mo. $1.50.

"The sweetest and most idealistic work he has yet produced."—The Boston Post.

THE WORSHIPPER OF THE IMAGE. A Tragic Fairy Tale. 12mo. $1.50.

"Mr. Le Gallienne is a literary exquisite who handles the daintiest flowers of fancy with fingers that do not bruise them."—The Chicago Times-Herald.

THE ROMANCE OF ZION CHAPEL. Fifth Edition. 12mo. $1.50.

"The reader will, we feel sure, place this book higher than anything in the way of prose the author has yet produced. It reads like a transcript from life."—The London Daily Chronicle.

SLEEPING BEAUTY: And other Prose Fancies. 12mo. $1.50.

"Another fragrant posy of Essays and critical articles. He has a precious gift of personality."—The London Star.
