_The Atlantic Monthly_ says of the author that she is “a Murillo in
literature,” and that the story “is one of the most artistic creations
of American literature.” Says a lady: “To me it is the most distinctive
piece of work we have had in this country since ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin,’ and
its exquisite finish of style is beyond that classic.” “The book is truly
an American novel,” says the _Boston Advertiser._ “Ramona is one of the
most charming creations of modern fiction,” says Charles D. Warner. “The
romance of the story is irresistibly fascinating,” says _The Independent_.
“The best novel written by a woman since George Eliot died, as it seems
to me, is Mrs. Jackson’s ‘Ramona.’ What action is there! What motion! How
_entrainant_ it is! It carries us along as if mounted on a swift horse’s
back, from beginning to end, and it is only when we return for a second
reading that we can appreciate the fine handling of the characters, and
especially the Spanish mother, drawn with a stroke as keen and firm as
that which portrayed George Eliot’s ‘Dorothea.’”—_T. W. Higginson, in
Harper’s Bazar._
