Book Description
A Novel By the author of " Far from the Madding Crowd," "A Pair of Blue Eyes," etc. "A valuable accession tothe ranks of modern novel writing authors. . . Not only quick observations and sparkling humor, and true moral instinct, but a delicate and subtle analysis of varieties of character and moods of feeling, a poet's sympathy with human passion, and an artist's eye for every aspect of nature."— London Spectator "A remarkable story. . . . The plot is worked out with abundant skill, but the essence of the book is precisely what it ought to be, namely, the evolution of character. . . His deserts are of no ordinary kind." — London Saturday Review. "The characters of the story are often exceedingly good. The construction of tile story is very curious. "-London Athenaeum.
