A book which has established its author in the front rank of American
novelists.
SMILES, A ROSE OF THE CUMBERLANDS (29th thousand)
E. J. Anderson, former managing Editor of the Boston _Advertiser_ and
_Record_, is enthusiastic over the story and says:
"I have read 'Smiles' in one reading. After starting it I could not put
it down. Never in my life have I read a book like this that thrilled me
half as much, and never have I seen a more masterful piece of writing."
SMILING PASS: A Sequel to "SMILES," A Rose of the Cumberlands
The thousands who have read and loved Mr. Robinson's earlier story of
the little Cumberland mountain girl, whose bright courage won for her
the affectionate appellation of "Smiles," will eagerly welcome her
return.
"Applied sociology, mixed with romance and adventure that rise to real
dramatic intensity. But the mixture is surprisingly successful. The
picture impresses one as being faithfully drawn from the living models
with sympathetic understanding. The book is effective."--_New York
Evening Post_.
THE MAID OF MIRABELLE: A Romance of Lorraine
Illustrated with reproductions of sketches made by the author, and with
a portrait of "The Maid of Mirabelle," from a painting by Neale Ordayne,
on the cover.
"The spirit of all the book is the bubbling, the irrepressibly
indomitable, cheerful faith of the people, at their very best, against
the grave Quakerism from the United States standing out grimly but
faithfully. The tale is simply, but strongly told."--_Montreal Family
Herald and Weekly Star_.
MAN PROPOSES; Or, The Romance of John Alden Shaw
"This is first of all a charming romance, distinguished by a fine
sentiment of loyalty to an ideal, by physical courage, indomitable
resolution to carry to success an altruistic undertaking, a splendid
woman's devotion, and by a vein of spontaneous, sparkling humor that
offsets its more serious phases."--_Springfield Republican_.
