SOUTHERN ITALY AND SICILY
AND
THE RULERS OF THE SOUTH
By F. MARION CRAWFORD
WITH A HUNDRED ORIGINAL DRAWINGS BY HENRY BROKMAN
Cloth Crown 8vo $2.50 net
“No living man of letters could have handled his materials with greater
skill, or distilled them with more certainty into a fluent and
fascinating narrative.”--_The Dial._
“Mr. Crawford’s manner and method throughout are those of the romantic
historian: true to fact, but true, also, to the romance of events, and
enlivening and strengthening the whole through the historical
imagination. He has taken a subject which he is peculiarly well fitted
to treat by his experience and his studies and his former work, and it
becomes, in his hand, a source of unexpected pleasure.”--_Boston
Herald._
AVE ROMA IMMORTALIS
STUDIES FROM THE CHRONICLES OF ROME
By F. MARION CRAWFORD
_Author of “Rulers of the South,” etc._
Fully Illustrated Cloth Crown 8vo $3.00 net
Dr. S. WEIR MITCHELL writes: “I have not for a long while read a book
which pleased me more than Mr. Crawford’s ‘Roma.’ It is cast in a form
so original and so available that it must surely take the place of all
other books about Rome which are needed to help one to understand its
story and its archæology.... The book has for me a rare interest.”
“The ablest popular work on Rome published in recent years.”--_Chicago
Tribune._
“The ideal chronicle of the Eternal City.”--_Inter-Ocean._
“More valuable to the general reader than any other.”--_San Francisco
Chronicle._
“He recalls the Rome of the great age of the conquests; of the Empire;
of those years when the fires of life were dying; of the age of the
barbarians; of the middle age; of the Renaissance; and of the modern
time.”--H. W. MABIE.

=WHOSOEVER SHALL OFFEND.=--“Not since George Eliot’s ‘Romola’ brought
her to her foreordained place among literary immortals, has there
appeared in English fiction a character at once so strong and
sensitive, so entirely and consistently human, so urgent and
compelling in its appeal to sustained, sympathetic
interest.”--_Philadelphia North American._
=THE HEART OF ROME (A Tale of the “Lost Water”).=--“Mr. Crawford has
written as absorbingly interesting a story as any of the
perennially engrossing ‘Saracinesca’ trilogy.”--_Brooklyn Times._
=CECILIA (A Story of Modern Rome).=--“The love story, which is the
dominating interest throughout, is so strange and novel a one that
many readers will, we think, compare it with ‘Mr. Isaacs,’ the
author’s first and most popular book.... Mr. Crawford will, we
think, be held to have scored a new and distinct success in this
story.”--_The Philadelphia North American._
=MARIETTA (A Maid Of Venice).=--“The workshop, its processes, the
ways and thought of the time, all this is handled in so masterly a
manner, not for its own sake, but for that of the story.... It has
charm and the romance which is eternally human, as well as that
which was of the Venice of that day. And over it all there is an
atmosphere of worldly wisdom, of understanding, sympathy, and
tolerance, of intuition and recognition, that makes Marion Crawford
the excellent companion he is in his books for mature men and
women.”--_New York Mail and Express._
=CORLEONE (A Tale of Sicily).=--_The last of the famous Saracinesca
Series._--“It is by far the most stirring and dramatic of all the
author’s Italian stories.... The plot is a masterly one, bringing
at almost every page a fresh surprise, keeping the reader in
suspense to the very end.”--_The Times_, New York.
=MR. ISAACS.=--“It is lofty and uplifting. It is strongly, sweetly,
tenderly written. It is in all respects an uncommon novel.”--_The
Literary World._
=DR. CLAUDIUS.=--“The characters are strongly marked without any
suspicion of caricature, and the author’s ideas on social and
political subjects are often brilliant and always striking. It is
no exaggeration to say that there is not a dull page in the book,
which is peculiarly adapted for the recreation of the student or
thinker.”--_Living Church._
=A ROMAN SINGER.=--“A powerful story of art and love in Rome.”--_The
New York Observer._
=AN AMERICAN POLITICIAN.=--“One of the characters is a visiting
Englishman. Possibly Mr. Crawford’s long residence abroad has made
him select such a hero as a safeguard against slips, which does not
seem to have been needed. His insight into a phase of politics with
which he could hardly be expected to be familiar is
remarkable.”--_Buffalo Express._
=TO LEEWARD.=--“It is an admirable tale of Italian life told in a
spirited way and far better than most of the fiction
current.”--_San Francisco Chronicle._
=ZOROASTER.=--“As a matter of literary art solely, we doubt if Mr.
Crawford has ever before given us better work than the description
of Belshazzar’s feast with which the story begins, or the
death-scene with which it closes.”--_The Christian Union_ (now _The
Outlook_).
=A TALE OF A LONELY PARISH.=--“It is a pleasure to have anything so
perfect of its kind as this brief and vivid story. It is doubly a
success, being full of human sympathy, as well as thoroughly
artistic.”--_The Critic._
=MARZIO’S CRUCIFIX.=--“We take the liberty of saying that this work
belongs to the highest department of character-painting in
words.”--_The Churchman._
=PAUL PATOFF.=--“It need scarcely be said that the story is skilfully
and picturesquely written, portraying sharply individual characters
in well-defined surroundings.”--_New York Commercial Advertiser._
=PIETRO GHISLERI.=--“The strength of the story lies not only in the
artistic and highly dramatic working out of the plot, but also in
the penetrating analysis and understanding of the impulsive and
passionate Italian character.”--_Public Opinion._
=THE CHILDREN OF THE KING.=--“One of the most artistic and
exquisitely finished pieces of work that Crawford has produced. The
picturesque setting, Calabria and its surroundings, the beautiful
Sorrento and the Gulf of Salerno, with the bewitching accessories
that climate, sea, and sky afford, give Mr. Crawford rich
opportunities to show his rare descriptive powers. As a whole the
book is strong and beautiful through its simplicity.”--_Public
Opinion._
=MARION DARCHE.=--“We are disposed to rank ‘Marion Darche’ as the
best of Mr. Crawford’s American stories.”--_The Literary World._
=THE THREE FATES.=--“The strength of the story lies in portrayal of
the aspirations, disciplinary efforts, trials, and triumphs of the
man who is a born writer, and who by long and painful experiences
learns the good that is in him and the way in which to give it
effectual expression. Taken for all in all, it is one of the most
pleasing of all his productions in fiction, and it affords a view
of certain phases of American, or perhaps we should say of New
York, life that have not hitherto been treated with anything like
the same adequacy and felicity.”--_Boston Beacon._
=KATHARINE LAUDERDALE.=--“It need scarcely be said that the story is
skilfully and picturesquely written, portraying sharply individual
characters in well-defined surroundings.”--_New York Commercial
Advertiser._
=THE RALSTONS.=--“The whole group of character studies is strong and
vivid.”--_The Literary World._
=LOVE IN IDLENESS.=--“The story is told in the author’s lightest
vein; it is bright and entertaining.”--_The Literary World._
=CASA BRACCIO.=--“We are grateful when Mr. Crawford keeps to his
Italy. The poetry and enchantment of the land are all his own, and
‘Casa Braccio’ gives promise of being his masterpiece.... He has
the life, the beauty, the heart, and the soul of Italy at the tips
of his fingers.”--_Los Angeles Express._
=TAQUISARA.=--“A charming story this is, and one which will certainly
be liked by all admirers of Mr. Crawford’s work.”--_New York
Herald._
=ADAM JOHNSTONE’S SON and A ROSE OF YESTERDAY.=--“It is not only one
of the most enjoyable novels that Mr. Crawford has ever written,
but is a novel that will make people think.”--_Boston Beacon._
“Don’t miss reading Marion Crawford’s new novel, ‘A Rose of
Yesterday.’ It is brief, but beautiful and strong. It is as
charming a piece of pure idealism as ever came from Mr. Crawford’s
pen.”--_Chicago Tribune._
=SARACINESCA.=--“The work has two distinct merits, either of which
would serve to make it great: that of telling a perfect story in a
perfect way, and of giving a graphic picture of Roman society....
The story is exquisitely told, and is the author’s highest
achievement, as yet, in the realm of fiction.”--_The Boston
Traveler._
=SANT’ ILARIO (A Sequel to Saracinesca).=--“A singularly powerful and
beautiful story.... It fulfils every requirement of artistic
fiction. It brings out what is most impressive in human action,
without owing any of its effectiveness to sensationalism or
artifice. It is natural, fluent in evolution, accordant with
experience, graphic in description, penetrating in analysis, and
absorbing in interest.”--_The New York Tribune._
=DON ORSINO (A Sequel to Saracinesca and Sant’ Ilario).=--“Offers
exceptional enjoyment in many ways, in the fascinating absorption
of good fiction, in the interest of faithful historic accuracy, and
in charm of style. The ‘New Italy’ is strikingly revealed in ‘Don
Orsino.’”--_Boston Budget._
=WITH THE IMMORTALS.=--“The strange central idea of the story could
have occurred only to a writer whose mind was very sensitive to the
current of modern thought and progress, while its execution, the
setting it forth in proper literary clothing, could be successfully
attempted only by one whose active literary ability should be fully
equalled by his power of assimilative knowledge, both literary and
scientific, and no less by his courage, and so have a fascination
entirely new for the habitual reader of novels. Indeed, Mr.
Crawford has succeeded in taking his readers quite above the
ordinary plane of novel interest.”--_The Boston Advertiser._
=GREIFENSTEIN.=--” ... Another notable contribution to the literature
of the day. Like all Mr. Crawford’s work, this novel is crisp,
clear, and vigorous, and will be read with a great deal of
interest.”--_New York Evening Telegram._
=A CIGARETTE-MAKER’S ROMANCE and KHALED.=--“It is a touching romance,
filled with scenes of great dramatic power.”--_Boston Commercial
Bulletin._
“It abounds in stirring incidents and barbaric picturesqueness; and
the love struggle of the unloved Khaled is manly in its simplicity
and noble in its ending.”--_The Mail and Express._
=THE WITCH OF PRAGUE=--“The artistic skill with which this
extraordinary story is constructed and carried out is admirable and
delightful.... Mr. Crawford has scored a decided triumph, for the
interest of the tale is sustained throughout.... A very remarkable,
powerful, and interesting story.”--_New York Tribune._
=VIA CRUCIS (A Romance of the Second Crusade).=--“Throughout ‘Via
Crucis’ the author shows not only the artist’s selective power and
a sense of proportion and comparative values, but the Christian’s
instinct for those things that it is well to think upon.... Blessed
is the book that exalts, and ‘Via Crucis’ merits that
beatitude.”--_New York Times._
=IN THE PALACE OF THE KING (A Love Story of Old Madrid).=--“Marion
Crawford’s latest story, ‘In the Palace of the King,’ is quite up
to the level of his best works for cleverness, grace of style, and
sustained interest. It is, besides, to some extent, a historical
story, the scene being the royal palace at Madrid, the author
drawing the characters of Philip II. and Don John of Austria, with
an attempt, in a broad impressionist way, at historic faithfulness.
His reproduction of the life at the Spanish court is as brilliant
and picturesque as any of his Italian scenes, and in minute study
of detail is, in a real and valuable sense, true history.”--_The
Advance._
