e most trivial incidents he describes. It
is a fascinating book, and one of its chief merits is the introspective
art and analytical power which every page reveals.... This is the most
nervous and dramatic production of Tolstoi that has been rendered into
English.--_N.Y. Sun._

It is, undoubtedly, the most graphic and powerful of Tolstoi's works
that has been given to the American reading public.... It should be read
and pondered by Christians, philanthropists, statesmen--by every one who
can think.--_Chicago Interior._

The profound realism of the book, its native, organic strength, will
make it one of the great books of the day. Certainly the underlying, the
ever-present horrors of war have seldom been so strikingly set
forth.--_St. Louis Republican._

pleasant to meet, even in this intangible way, women who can break their
hearts and men who would die rather than sacrifice their honor.--_N.Y.
Press._

A romance by Captain King is always a pleasure, because he has so
complete a mastery of the subjects with which he deals.... Captain King
has few rivals in his domain.... The general tone of Captain King's
stories is highly commendable. The heroes are simple, frank, and

All Captain King's stories are full of spirit and with the true ring
about them.--_Philadelphia Item._
