THE NIBELUNGENLEID
Translated into rhymed verse in the metre of the original by George Henry Needler, of University College, Toronto. Gilt top, 335 pp. 12mo. $1.75 net (by mail $1.87).
Prof. H. C. G. Brandt, Hamilton College, Clinton, N. Y.: "It is the best English translation, without question. The translator shows his good judgment when he retains the original strophe, the characteristic last half-verse with its four ictus included. That a Germanist could write an introduction of only 36 pages to such a much-discussed epic will be a marvel to his fellows. But it contains all the general reader wants and needs to know."
N. Y. Evening Post: "At last we have an English translation of the Nibelungenlied which is in every way worthy of the original."
N. Y. Times Review: "The book stands in no need of any apology.... The scholarly introduction deserves unqualified praise."
Buffalo Commercial: "This version, it is safe to say, is the best ever published in our language."
