THE GLIMPSES OF THE MOONBy EDITH WHARTON “I can think of no American novel, written within the last few years, and dealing with contemporary life, to compare with it. And not only does Mrs. Wharton write better than anyone else, but she knows how to unfold a more exciting tale.”—Katherine Fullerton Gerould in the New York Times. THE MIRACLEBy E. TEMPLE THURSTON A keen, human story of the west coast of Ireland, with peculiar fascination in the rich background of Irish folk lore. THE VAN ROONBy J. C. SNAITH An unusual and totally absorbing plot, delightfully told, and a remarkable set of characters, unmatched since Dickens. THE MOUNTAIN SCHOOL TEACHERBy MELVILLE DAVISSON POST How would Christ act if He appeared in the world today? Through Mr. Post’s story of the Kentucky mountains runs an impressive allegory. ABBÉ PIERREBy JAY WILLIAM HUDSON This charming novel of life in quaint Gascony has proved that a novel that is a work of true literary art may be a best seller of the widest popularity. D.
