"Over the whole book broods a rich sunset light of lost causes, forgotten and hopeless loyalties, a passing order. … There is the passionate life of the older order and its ideals in the breasts of those who cling to them; the high ardour, the faith, and the exalted sense of noblesse oblige. … As a creation of a strange and glowing atmosphere it is remarkable."—London Times.
"Spacious in scope, splendid in vigour and colouring, and rich in human feeling and sentiment, … the whole romance thrills and glows with a real and splendid effect of life, and I commend it heartily to all who would wish to become immersed in a long, vivid, emotional, and wonderfully convincing story, deriving its interests from a great past."—Dundee Advertiser.
"Mr. Ayscough is impressive. He draws living people, and makes them interesting."—Morning Leader.
"True Romance—vivid, many-coloured, passionate."—Daily Graphic.
