r of our
time.'--_Pall Mall Gazette._

'A very striking and admirable novel.'--_St. James's Gazette._

THE TRANSLATION OF A SAVAGE.

'The plot is original and one difficult to work out; but Mr. Parker
has done it with great skill and delicacy. The reader who is not
interested in this original, fresh, and well-told tale must be a dull
person indeed.'--_Daily Chronicle._

THE TRAIL OF THE SWORD. _Fifth Edition._

'Everybody with a soul for romance will thoroughly enjoy "The Trail of
the Sword."'--_St. James's Gazette._

a joy inexpressible to the reviewer.'--_Daily Chronicle._

matured power which his former novels have led us to expect, and has
produced a really fine historical novel.... Most sincerely is Mr.
