"Mr. Fenn is in the front rank of writers of stories for
boys."--_Liverpool Mercury._

=Quicksilver:= Or a Boy with no Skid to his Wheel. By George
Manville Fenn. With 10 full-page Illustrations by Frank
Dadd. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, _6s._
"_Quicksilver_ is little short of an inspiration. In it that prince
of story-writers for boys--George Manville Fenn--has surpassed
himself. It is an ideal book for a boy's library."--_Practical
Teacher._
"The story is capitally told, it abounds in graphic and
well-described scenes, and it has an excellent and manly tone
throughout."--_The Guardian._
"This is one of Mr. Fenn's happiest efforts, and deserves to be
read and re-read by every school-boy in the land. We are not
exaggerating when we say that _Quicksilver_ has nothing to equal it
this season."--_Teacher's Aid._
=Dick o' the Fens:= A Romance of the Great East Swamp. By G.
Manville Fenn. With 12 full-page Illustrations by Frank
Dadd. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, _6s._
"We conscientiously believe that boys will find it capital reading.
It is full of incident and mystery, and the mystery is kept up to
the last moment. It is rich in effective local colouring; and it
has a historical interest."--_Times._
"We have not of late come across a historical fiction, whether
intended for boys or for men, which deserves to be so heartily and
unreservedly praised as regards plot, incidents, and spirit as
_Dick o' the Fens_. It is its author's masterpiece as
yet."--_Spectator._
=Devon Boys:= A Tale of the North Shore. By G. Manville Fenn.
With 12 full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo,
cloth elegant, olivine edges, _6s._
"An admirable story, as remarkable for the individuality of its
young heroes as for the excellent descriptions of coast scenery and
life in North Devon. It is one of the best books we have seen this
season."--_Athenæum._
"We do not know that Mr. Fenn has ever reached a higher level than
he has in _Devon Boys_. It must be put in the very front rank of
Christmas books."--_Spectator._
=Brownsmith's Boy:= A Romance in a Garden. By G. Manville Fenn.
With 12 full-page Illustrations by Gordon Browne. Crown 8vo,
cloth elegant, olivine edges, _6s._
"Mr. Fenn's books are among the best, if not altogether the best,
of the stories for boys. Mr. Fenn is at his best in _Brownsmith's
Boy_."--_Pictorial World._
"_Brownsmith's Boy_ must rank among the few undeniably good boys'
books. He will be a very dull boy indeed who lays it down without
wishing that it had gone on for at least 100 pages more."--_North
British Mail._
=In the King's Name:= Or the Cruise of the _Kestrel_. By G. Manville
Fenn. Illustrated by 12 full-page Pictures by Gordon
Browne. Crown 8vo, cloth elegant, olivine edges, _6s._
"A capital boys' story, full of incident and adventure, and told in
the lively style in which Mr. Fenn is such an adept."--_Globe._
"The best of all Mr. Fenn's productions in this field. It has the
great quality of always 'moving on,' adventure following adventure
in constant succession."--_Daily News._
