"'The Hosts of the Lord' is a very dramatic and absorbing story; once
embarked on its broad current, one is carried swiftly to the final
catastrophe.... The novel is not only dramatic in the sense of
presenting a well-defined plot, relating the actors to it and carrying
the narrative on to a tragic climax; it is also full of atmospheric
effects; the languor, the heat, the passion of nature in the East are in
it."--HAMILTON W. MABIE.
