of its success.... While the
beautiful love of Cornelia and Drusus lies at the sound sweet heart of the
story, to say so is to give a most meagre idea of the large sustained
interest of the whole.... There are many incidents so vivid, so brilliant,
that they fix themselves in the memory."--_The Bookman._

"God Wills It"
A TALE OF THE FIRST CRUSADE
"Not since Sir Walter Scott cast his spell over us with 'Ivanhoe,' 'Count
Robert of Paris,' and 'Quentin Durward' have we been so completely
captivated by a story as by 'God Wills It,' by William Stearns Davis. It
grips the attention of the reader in the first chapter and holds it till
the last.... It is a story of strenuous life, the spirit of which might
well be applied in some of our modern Crusades. While true to life in its
local coloring, it is sweet and pure, and leaves no after-taste of
bitterness. The author's first book, 'A Friend of Caesar,' revealed his
power, and 'God Wills It' confirms and deepens the impression
made."--_Christian Endeavor World._

The Long Road
By JOHN OXENHAM
"... It is a thrilling and an absorbing story. Through all the tragedy of
life ... there is a rarely sweet accompaniment of tender tones, of love
and heroism and intermittent, never quite lost hope. It is a touching and
beautiful story."--_Buffalo Evening News._
